Derrick Henry surpasses 1,000 rushing yards and makes more history

Henry has reached the end zone in all nine of his games as a Raven and has 13 total touchdowns this season. He muscled his way into the end zone on both of his touchdown runs against the Broncos, scoring from seven and six yards out.

Henry is the fourth player since 1990 to score in each of his first nine games of a season, joining Todd Gurley (first ten games in 2018), Arian Foster (first nine in 2012) and LeSean McCoy (first nine in 2011).

Henry reached 100 rushing yards for the sixth time (106) in his first nine games as a Raven. He said others on the bench told him late in the game to get over that marker and he responded, “If I get it, I get it.”

Henry gave a locker room speech after the game and immediately turned his and the team’s attention to the Cincinnati Bengals, who come to M&T Bank Stadium on Thursday night.

“We’re done with it, and it is what it is,” Henry said. “To have the day I had, I give credit to everyone who blocks. I’m not happy with how I played and I have to do better the next game. If I have any success, give credit to them.” For me, I’m not too happy with the match.”
