Footballguys on Derrick Henry
From the article
Derrick Henry leads the league with 130 carries, and that volume is why he belongs in the top tier of running backs, even as his efficiency has dipped. Henry has 534 yards and seven touchdowns at 4.1 yards per carry, averaging 21.7 carries per game.
STACKED’s take
Henry's league-leading 130 carries cement top-tier status despite recent efficiency dips.
Derrick Henry leads the league with 130 carries and belongs in the top tier of running backs despite recent efficiency dips; he has 534 yards and seven touchdowns at 4.1 yards per carry, averaging 21.7 carries per game. Recent performances show 102 yards in Week 5 overtime win at Atlanta and 58 yards in Week 6 loss at Cleveland with no rushing touchdowns in either game as the Ravens offense desperately misses starting quarterback Lamar Jackson. The source notes that part of Henry's efficiency dip is due to the rebuilt offensive line ravaged by injuries and the loss of center Tyler Linderbaum; however, the return of Cam Jurgens from Philadelphia to start at center and push Vega Ioane to right guard should greatly help the offensive line, as 2025 third-round pick Emery Jones has been a disaster at right guard this season.
