Players to Watch

Derrick Henry, RB, Tennessee Titans

Derrick Henry nearly led the Tennessee Titans to the Super Bowl with a hard running style reminiscent of a past era. The 247-pound bruiser rushed for 446 yards in three postseason games and proved to be one of the most difficult players to take down in the postseason.

For now, though, Henry is trying to enjoy himself

"It is cool being here, being with all the superstars and being able to spend time with guys you played against," Henry said, per Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official website. "Being able to relax, chill and have a good time—it's awesome."

This is the first career Pro Bowl appearance for Henry, and the running back may find it difficult to shake off his competitive edge. This could lead to some entertaining plays during which players have no interest in tackling the human battering ram.

Lamar Jackson, RB, Baltimore Ravens

While players won't be eager to take down the physical Henry, they are going to have a hard time tackling Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson.

Jackson, who rushed for 1,206 yards in the regular season, is hard to bring down in a real game. In one wherein full-contact hits are few and far between, he could be unstoppable. With video game-like cuts and jukes in his arsenal, Jackson is a human highlight reel—and that's just running the ball.

The Baltimore signal-caller's ability to deliver accurate downfield strikes—which was on display during the Pro Bowl skills competition—will lead to many additional wow plays.

Jackson was perhaps the most exciting player to watch during the regular season. That's likely to continue here at the Pro Bowl.

Jarvis Landry, WR, Cleveland Browns

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry was the star of the Pro Bowl skills competition. Unsurprisingly, he helped the AFC to win the best hands competition. More surprising was his performance in the dodgeball competition—which is worth a watch.

Landry was so confident in his catching ability that he stopped throwing the ball all together and won by doing what he does best: catching passes.

His receiving ability will be on full display during the Pro Bowl, but that's not the only reason to keep an eye on him. Landry also has some arm talent, which he has occasionally flexed on the playing field:

If the AFC decides to run a trick play or two during the Pro Bowl—a common occurrence when the players are having fun—it could well involve Landry.
