Derrick Henry fires back at Grant Delpit's 'not hard' to tackle claim

Is Grant Delpit tempting fate? 

The Browns safety definitely gave off that impression when he answered a question on Thursday regarding the difficulty of tackling Ravens running back Derrick Henry. 

“Not hard,” Delpit responded days before Cleveland travels to Baltimore for a Week 2 showdown. “We’re playing football, man. It’s tackle football.

“Somebody got the ball, you gotta bring him down.”

The comment didn’t appear to worry the 252-pound Henry too much when he was asked to respond to the comment after Ravens practice. 

The five-time Pro Bowler sent a simple yet firm message after he heard Delpit’s comments. 

“I saw that. … We’ll see on Sunday,” he told reporters. 

Henry, 31, was one of the best players for the Ravens on Sunday in Baltimore’s loss to the Bills on “Sunday Night Football.” 

While he did have a fumble late in that game, Henry rushed for 169 yards and two touchdowns in the 41-40 defeat. 

Delpit, 26, has four tackles in the Browns’ season-opening loss to the Bengals.

In two games against Cleveland last season, the Ravens running back recorded 211 rushing yards on 31 carries and reached the end zone three times. 

The safety had a big hit on Henry last season, which the Browns posted on social media Thursday.

They’ll get a chance to see who reigns supreme on Sunday with both teams looking for their first win in 2025.
