Henry has 2,662 career carries, tops among active players, and at age 31 last season had 1,595 yards and 16 touchdowns while averaging a healthy 5.2 yards per carry. The source notes that given concerns about wear and tear for backs in the modern NFL, it's absurd what Henry continues to do, but most modern backs aren't 252 pounds like Henry. At some point Henry will slow down, but predicting it seems foolish; he is an outlier in today's game, better suited for an era in which running back committees didn't exist.
