Derrick Henry aims for another historic season with Ravens in 2026
Summary

Derrick Henry, the Baltimore Ravens' running back, embarks on his 11th NFL season with high expectations. Following impressive performances in recent years, including rushing for 1,595 yards and 16 touchdowns last season, he aims to secure his place in NFL history with another 1,500-yard season. His durability is a standout trait, as he has played in 67 of 68 regular-season games since 2022. Additionally, the presence of quarterback Lamar Jackson enhances Henry's running opportunities, potentially giving him softer defensive fronts to exploit. As the new season unfolds, the Ravens are hopeful that Henry will continue to perform at an elite level.
