The record-breaker had another big game.

Tennessee Titans RB Derrick Henry followed his franchise-record day last week with a league-leading effort this time around in a 17-0 win over the Giants. He had 33 carries for 170-yards and two touchdowns -- all league-highs this week. No other RB even got to the 150-yard mark (or had 30 carries), while six other players hit the end zone twice.

Henry's Rookie Cards and debut autos can be found in packs among the loaded rookie crop of 2016 (click here to see his autos on eBay) and they're probably still warm from last week's out-of-nowhere game. He'll continue to be watched the rest of the way this year.

Seven catches for 210 yards and a score ... at halftime.

That was the latest stat line for San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle, whose Rookie Cards and first autos can be found in a few releases last year. This year, he's been a scorcher and that stat line -- it unfortunately didn't change after halftime -- was nearly the best day in NFL history for a tight end. (He needed five to pass Shannon Sharpe.)

He's got nearly 60 different autos but only seven Rookie Cards among his more than 150 made since his cardboard debut. He can be found in Absolute, Elite, Limited, Contenders, National Treasures and Phoenix. For the season, he's got 69 catches for 1,103 yards and four touchdowns -- all career-highs for the former fifth-round pick out of Iowa. >> Check out his auto cards on eBay here
