Adam Sandler promises to cast Derrick Henry in a movie if Ravens RB posts 2,000-yard season
Our Summary
The NFL's most intriguing wager this season involves Adam Sandler and Baltimore Ravens' running back Derrick Henry. During an interview, Dan Patrick facilitated a playful bet where Sandler promised to cast Henry in a film if he rushes for at least 2,000 yards in a season. Henry, a fan of Sandler, eagerly accepted the challenge. Notably, Henry has previously achieved this feat in 2020 with the Tennessee Titans. In his first season with the Ravens, he amassed 1,921 rushing yards, and the team subsequently rewarded him with a two-year, $30 million extension. Now, as the Ravens prepare to face the Buffalo Bills on September 7, Henry has Hollywood aspirations alongside his NFL goals.
