In Week 2, everyone should keep an eye on the game between the Cleveland Browns and the Baltimore Ravens. That's because of two players: Browns safety Grant Delpit and Ravens running back Derrick Henry. On Thursday, Delpit went viral after claiming that tackling Henry is "not hard."
Now, the superstar RB has fired back at the safety. The two-time rushing champion responded simply, "I saw that. … We’ll see on Sunday."
There is growing confidence within the Browns' defense after a strong Week 1 showing despite their narrow loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.
Henry has proven hard to stop over his career, including last season's two games against Cleveland, where he rushed 31 times for 211 yards and three touchdowns. Last week, he put up 169 yards and two touchdowns against the Buffalo Bills.
The Browns, eager to rebound after the 17-16 loss, will visit the Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium on Sunday. Both teams enter the game searching for their first win of the season.
With the back-and-forth comments between Derrick Henry and Grant Delpit, the game has become a high-stakes showdown.
