Vote for EJ's nickname

Star-divide

After his play last week, and the impact and identity he lends to the defense, it only seems appropriate that EJ Henderson receives a nickname as good as All Day and/or Purple Jesus.

Here are the user submissions. Please vote for your favorite, or add your own in the comments.

One last thing--many of the nicknames refer to the flying Superman hit EJ laid on DeAngelo Williams last week, just a point of reference.

Brown Sugar

I was thinking more of the DeAngelo connection. But your points are true none-the-less.

EJ!

I love referring to him simply as EJ. Although, varying how you say the name is what makes it great. I like to elongate the E and say it loud and with authority… “EEEEEEEEE, JAY!” Think Chris Berman and his “GEEEEE-MEN” phrase. It’s perfect!!

Agree

It’s already his “nickname”! Although I have to say “early jump” made me laugh!

Edge...

My vote would be to just call him Edge Henderson as if pronouncing E.J. like the letters weren’t abbreviating something.

Edge Henderson sounds badass and that runningback in Arizona clearly lacks the burst worthy of such a sweet nickname as of the last few seasons (or whenever he didn’t have the leagues best passing game making all that room for him)— but he did have it first… what do you guys think?

sarcastically

i said thor henderson, and i really don’t know about the whole nickname thing yet, but where’s E.J. Almighty?

What up?
