Derrick Henry scores for the ninth game in a row, Ravens leads 7-0

Death and taxes are called the only two certainties in life, but Derrick Henry’s touchdowns are pretty close.

Henry ran seven yards for a touchdown to open the scoring in Sunday’s game between the Ravens and the Broncos. The Ravens led 7-0 with just over two minutes to play in the first quarter.

Henry has now scored touchdowns in all nine games for the Ravens. It is his twelfth touchdown this season and the 100th rushing touchdown of his career. He is the tenth player to reach that total.

The Ravens’ first possession started in Broncos territory after a Bo Nix pass to Lil’Jordan Humphrey went out of the wideout’s hands and was cleared by Ar’Darius Washington. However, Lamar Jackson was sacked on third down by John Franklin-Myers and the Ravens were knocked out of field goal range.

The ensuing punt pinned the Broncos at their 2-yard line and a fourth down run near midfield was stopped short, so the Ravens had another short field and Jackson hit on a 29-yard pass to Nelson Agholor to set up the Henry score to set up.
