On December 27, 2025, Baltimore Ravens standout Derrick Henry achieved a new career best with 36 carries in a commanding 41-24 victory over the Green Bay Packers, a performance reminiscent of classic workhorse running backs. The 31-year-old stiff arm legend averaged an outstanding 6.0 yards per attempt, including explosive rushes of 30 and 25 yards, as he stormed to 216 running yards and an incredible four touchdowns, tying his career best in scoring.
In addition to setting an NFL record with his ninth career 200-yard game, Henry's incredible performance moved him up to 10th place on the all-time rushing yards list with 12,892 yards and fourth in rushing touchdowns with 122, overtaking greats like Adrian Peterson and Tony Dorsett. Henry's unrelenting effort kept Baltimore in the AFC North battle when the Ravens' chances of making the playoffs were at stake, demonstrating why, in his tenth season, he remains one of the league's most formidable and resilient backs.
Derrick Henry has obviously proven that he is still capapable of being a workhourse. The Ravens did a great job of protecting Tyler Huntly by feeding Henry and giving him 36 carries. Will the Ravens do the same for Lamar Jackson in this winner take all game against the Pittsburgh Steelers? I hope so but John Harbaugh and Todd Monken have shown a tendency to get away from what is working.
