Lou Anarumo prepares defensive scheme for Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry

Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo is planning defensive assignments to contain Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry in the upcoming Week 1 matchup. Following a 2025 season where the Colts ranked seventh in rushing yards allowed, Anarumo faces the challenge of adjusting his defensive front without linebacker Zaire Franklin. Baltimore offensive coordinator DeClan Doyle plans to utilize 11-personnel groupings and potential outside stretch runs to create space for Henry and Justice Hill. On the other side of the ball, Anarumo intends to disrupt the Ravens' offensive line through a dynamic twist pass rush featuring Arden Key, Deforest Buckner, and Laiatu Lati. Doyle must determine if his counter schemes can neutralize the Colts' defensive front as both sides prepare for the season opener.
