Julio Jones makes NFL’s top 100 players list, Derrick Henry confirmed top 10

After three Tennessee Titans made the NFL’s “Top 100 Players of 2021” list on the first night last week, wide receiver Julio Jones became the fourth player on the team to grace the list on Sunday.

Jones comes in at No. 29 on the list, which is 18 spots lower than where he was ranked in 2020. The drop isn’t surprising, as the veteran wideout dealt with injury that sidelined him for seven games last season.

The future Hall-of-Fame wide receiver joins four other Titans teammates on the list, including quarterback Ryan Tannehill (No. 83), defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons (No. 78), wide receiver A.J. Brown (No. 62), and running back Derrick Henry.

While we don’t know where exactly Henry will be ranked yet, NFL Media on Twitter did confirm that he’s in the top 10, which will be revealed on Saturday, Aug. 31 on NFL Network.

In 2020, Henry landed at No. 10, his first appearance in the top 10. We fully expect him to move up the list after his historic 2,000-yard season, but how many spots remains to be seen.
