Derrick Henry Makes Bold Comments on Taylor Swift’s Decision to Increase Personal Security Budget by $2 Million
Derrick Henry, running back for the Indianapolis Colts, has made some bold comments in response to Taylor Swift’s recent decision to increase her personal security budget by an estimated $2 million, particularly focusing on enhancing security at NFL games. The pop superstar, who has been a high-profile figure at several games this season, made the move as a precautionary measure due to the growing attention and potential risks surrounding her public appearances.
“It’s crazy to think that someone needs to increase their security by $2 million just for attending a game,” Henry said, laughing. “I mean, we’re talking about a person who’s already got millions of fans following her every move. I get it, she’s a huge deal, but $2 million for security? That’s next-level stuff. At this point, she probably has her own private army!”
Henry, known for his candid and often humorous opinions, expressed his amazement at the scale of Swift’s decision. While the security increase is likely a result of the intense public interest and high-profile nature of Swift’s presence at sporting events, Henry’s remarks reflected a mix of surprise and amusement at the size of the budget allocated for her protection.
“I know she’s a global superstar, and her safety is important,” Henry continued. “But that kind of money is wild. I’m over here trying to make sure I don’t get tackled on the field, and Taylor Swift is out here making sure she’s got a whole fleet of bodyguards. It’s just a different world, man.”
Despite his playful comments, Henry acknowledged the challenges of living in the public eye and the importance of security for high-profile celebrities like Swift. “At the end of the day, I get it,” he said. “She’s a target because of her fame. But hey, if I had $2 million to throw at something, I might spend it on a few extra game tickets or a new car, not security. But that’s just me!”
While Henry’s comments were lighthearted, they also reflected the sometimes surreal world that celebrities like Taylor Swift inhabit, where even the most basic elements of daily life — like attending a game — require significant attention to safety and privacy.
Dak Prescott Admits Cowboys Were Outplayed on Both Sides in Disappointing Loss to Cardinals
The defense has been the Dallas Cowboys’ Achilles heel from day one. They lingered in the lower echelons of nearly every metric in
Since then, both pass and run defense have plummeted to the very bottom of the pile. Even teams like the Carolina Panthers and Arizona Cardinals no longer fear going all-in against them.
Quarterback Dak Prescott has been the Cowboys’ saving grace on several occasions, dragging the team to three wins. It’s the defense that has let him down. In a desperate move, the veteran quarterback has given up six interceptions and committed a few turnovers.
According to senior Cowboys journalist Ed Werder, the Cowboys are allowing opponents to score on 49.5% of drives this season, which is tied with the Cincinnati Bengals as the worst defense in the NFL.
During the Monday night showdown in week 9, the Cowboys allowed the 21st-ranked Cardinals offense (FOX Sports) to score 27 points while they managed only 10 until the final moments of the game when Prescott hit WR
After the game, Prescott admitted that the Cowboys were outplayed by the Cardinals, who, despite the win, are at the bottom of the NFC West.
“They kicked our a*** on both sides of the ball,” Prescott said.
Cowboys address defensive worries with big player trades
Moreover, the Cowboys’ defense under defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus
To address the defensive deficiencies, Jerry Jones made two notable deadline day trades. The first move the Cowboys made was to trade LB Logan Wilson from the Bengals for a 2026 seventh-round pick. Right after Wilson, Jones sent a 2026 second-round pick, a 2027 first-round pick, and DT Mazi Smith to the New York Jets to acquire Quinnen Williams .
According to Werder, these trades should improve the worst defense in the Cowboys’ franchise history.
The Cowboys have allowed 30.8 PPG this season, their 3rd-highest mark through 9 games in franchise history after 1960 (33.1) and 2020 (32.2), per ESPN Research. They’ve also allowed opponents to convert on 53% of 3rd downs this season – the highest mark since the 1982 Chiefs. In addition, they’ve permitted 22 Pass TD, the 2nd most in the NFL after the Bengals (23). That’s also the most Pass TD the Cowboys have allowed in their first 9 games of a season in franchise history.
The bye week came at the correct time in Dallas. It will provide both Wilson and Williams time to learn Eberflus’ playbook. The following week, Brian Schottenheimer and his team travel to Vegas and face the Raiders in a must-win game for both teams.
