American footballer Erin Henderson, who has the potential to become a National Football League (NFL) star like his brother EJ, has said he plays poker to ease the tension.

He told Bleacherreport.com that has a "very nice basement" in his house, complete with pool table, poker table, ping pong table and a 72-inch television.

"So I usually just invite some friends over and hang out," he explained.

"I have had quite a bit of free time here recently - something I never had while in college - so I have started reading some good books."

When asked what is the best football book or movie had ever read or watched, he replied that Remember The Titans is his favorite.

"The fact that it is based on a true story - and the message that it delivers - makes it a great movie," he added.

Erin, a linebacker like his brother, declared himself eligible for the 2008 NFL Draft after two years playing at Maryland.

Last year, Erin led a 6-6 Maryland squad to the 2007 Emerald Bowl but they lost to Oregon State.
