• Ravens' Derrick Henry: Good use of opportunities in loss

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Henry rushed 18 times for 84 yards and a touchdown and secured his only target for 12 yards in the Ravens' 26-23 loss to the Raiders on Sunday. Henry's afternoon was highlighted by a 29-yard run, and he grinded out 55 yards on his other 17 totes. One of those was a three-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter, his second score in as many games in a Ravens uniform. Henry has yet to hit the 20-carry mark with his new squad, but he'll hope to take advantage of a Cowboys defense that surrendered four total touchdowns to the Saints' Alvin Kamara when he faces them in a Week 3 road matchup.

• Ravens' Derrick Henry: Scores TD in Ravens debut

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  Henry rushed 13 times for 46 yards and a touchdown and failed to catch either of his two targets in the Ravens' 27-20 loss to the Chiefs on Thursday. Henry was featured on his first regular-season drive as a Raven, taking the first touch of the night from scrimmage for a two-yard run and eventually capping off the opening possession with a five-yard touchdown rush for the first points of the new season. The veteran offseason addition was sparsely utilized after that point, however, logging only eight more carries the rest of the way, in part due to game script. Henry did resemble the explosive power back he established himself as over the last several seasons in Tennessee, but a much better picture of where he fits within Baltimore's offense will become clearer in games in which he can handle a much more conventional workload.

• Ravens' Derrick Henry: Set for lead role in team debut

  15D ago • By RotoWire

  Henry is set to lead Baltimore's backfield Thursday against the Chiefs, despite not playing in the preseason, Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official site reports. Henry will be making his Ravens debut Thursday, and Baltimore understandably didn't want to add any unnecessary tread to the 30-year-old running back's tires during the preseason after he handled 1,529 regular-season carries over the past five years with the Titans, leading the NFL in rushing attempts four times in that span. Justice Hill should fill a change-of-pace role behind Henry on Thursday in a Baltimore backfield that may not have any other options with Keaton Mitchell (knee) on the PUP list and Rasheen Ali (neck) listed as doubtful.

• Ravens' Derrick Henry: Not in line for preseason action

  08/07/2024 • By RotoWire

  Henry isn't slated to see any preseason action, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network. The Ravens have nothing to gain by exposing their lead back to injury during exhibition play, so he won't be back on the field for a game until Week 1 against the Chiefs. In the meantime, Rasheen Ali, Owen Wright and Chris Collier should have opportunities to make cases for depth slotting behind Henry and Justice Hill.

• Ravens' Derrick Henry: Lands with Ravens

  03/12/2024 • By RotoWire

  Henry is signing a two-year contract with the Ravens, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. It's a match that's been rumored all offseason, after the Ravens infamously attempted just six RB carries in an AFC Championship Game loss to Kansas City. For Henry, it'll be the first change of scenery in his pro career, following an eight-year stint with the Titans that featured five 1,000-yard rushing seasons, including three over 1,500 and one over 2,000. He led the league with 280 carries in 2023 and hit pay dirt 12 times, though he averaged a career-low 4.17 yards per attempt while ceding nearly half of Tennessee's backfield snaps to rookie Tyjae Spears. There's reason to believe the 30-year-old's YPC mark will rebound with the move to Baltimore, where he'll have superior QB play and likely a better offensive line. Henry's contract reportedly has a base value of $16 million over two years, with $9 million guaranteed and then another $4 million available via incentives.
