After Henry finished Week 1 as the No. 1 RB (34.8 points, 163 yards, 3 TDs on 24 carries, 1 target), I feel good about that call... he could see exceptional usage in Week 2 given that the Ravens are home favorites and might lean especially hard into the run game without WRs Zay Flowers (hamstring), Devontez Walker (groin) and Ja'Kobi Lane (wrist).

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Henry's elite Week 1 performance and Ravens' WR injuries support heavy run-game usage vs. Saints.

Henry finished Week 1 as the No. 1 RB (34.8 points, 163 yards, 3 TDs on 24 carries, 1 target) and is upgraded for Week 2 vs. Saints as a home favorite; the source pitched him to Matthew Berry as a 2026 Ride or Die candidate before the season. Despite joining the Ravens at age 30, Henry was No. 2 in scrimmage yards (3,859) and all-purpose TDs (34) over the past two seasons and could see exceptional usage given the Ravens might lean especially hard into the run game without WRs Zay Flowers (hamstring), Devontez Walker (groin), and Ja'Kobi Lane (wrist).
