Cris Collinsworth recalls the hilarious story of Trevon Diggs yelling at Derrick Henry about a stiff arm

Derrick Henry has made many defenders look silly over the years with his stiff arm, and Trevon Diggs was determined not to be one of them.

Diggs and the Dallas Cowboys faced Henry and the Baltimore Ravens in Week 3, and the running back remembered something the cornerback said to him before attempting a tackle. He relayed the story to NBC Cris Collinsworthwho told it during the Football on Sunday evenings Matchup between the Ravens and Bills.

“Everyone is afraid of the stiff arm,” Collinsworth said. “Everyone does it. The great story that Derrick Henry told us is that Trevon Diggs came to him last week to try to attack him and when he approached Derrick Henry he said, “You're not stiff to arm me” , while he made the tackle. I’ve never heard that before.”

Ultimately, the Cowboys did a poor job of tackling Henry and lost 28-25. The running back torched the Dallas defense with a season-high 151 yards and two touchdowns.

Henry continued his success Sunday night against the Bills. He opened the game by breaking free an 87-yard touchdown on the first play of Baltimore's first drive.

He later scored another touchdown after catching a five-yard pass for the score. So far, Henry has rushed for 108 yards while the Ravens were up 21-3 at halftime.

Derrick Henry is in his ninth NFL season and was named the 2020 Offensive Player of the Year. He passed for 2,027 yards that year, a number that ranks fifth in league history, as well as 17 touchdowns.

Even at the age of 30, Henry continues to prove with his play that he is still one of the best running backs in the NFL. He will look to continue his high level of play as the Ravens look to capture their second win of the season.
