TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — The Alabama Crimson Tide calmed all, if any, concerns Bama fans had prior to last weekend after handling the Georgia Bulldogs in a 38-10 victory in Athens. Sharing in the spoils this season is Alabama running back, Derrick Henry, an impact player for the Crimson Tide shining with 560 yards and 9 TDs already for the 2015 season. With Henry off to a solid start, his stats and growing stardom couldn’t protect him from the jokes after his second quarter tumble “fail.”

In the second quarter during a team celebration Henry jumped to meet teammates in mid-air, but didn’t make contact with anyone or anything but the grass.

According to quarterback and teammate Jake Coker, Henry’s teammates are making fun of his “fail.”
