Derrick Henry arrives in lavish style on his birthday, looking to break two-decade long franchise record
Derrick Henry is no stranger in making fashion statements or breaking records. In the Baltimore Ravens last regular season game, the star running back is looking to do both. X/@RAVENSHenry arrived in a slick all black outfit, looking to put an exclamation mark on another historic season[/caption] He has taste, he has style, he has flair, and he’s now looking to add a franchise record to his name. Henry currently has 1,783 rushing yards and 14 rushing touchdowns in his first season with Baltimore. Absurd numbers for a running back who is celebrating his 31st birthday on Saturday. He pulled up in a slick all black outfit ahead of his game against the Cleveland Browns. A game with a lot on the line. A win against Cleveland, and Baltimore will win the AFC North for a consecutive year and lock them into the three seed for the postseason. That’s not all that is on the line. Henry is currently tied with franchise legend Jamal Lewis for must rushing touchdowns in a regular season, with 14. One more and the record is Henry’s all by himself. Henry already has the most total touchdowns in franchise history with 16 (14 rushing touchdowns, plus two receiving touchdowns). Henry and quarterback Lamar Jackson have formed one of the NFL’s most unstoppable duos this seasonGetty But wants more. In addition to the near 1,800 rushing yards, Henry in total has 1,953 yards from scrimmage. With that 15th touchdown and 47 more scrimmage yards, Henry can become the fifth player in NFL history with at least 2,000 scrimmage yards and 15 rushing touchdowns in multiple career seasons. The only four to do that? Pro Football Hall of Famers Terrell Davis and Emmitt Smith, along with Priest Holmes and Larry Johnson. Henry can also become the first player in NFL history to record multiple seasons of 1,800+ rushing yards and 15+ rushing touchdowns. Henry and quarterback Lamar Jackson have proven to be nearly unstoppable this season, as they have been a match made in heaven. Jackson is on the verge of taking home his third MVP award, while Henry will surely capture another All-Pro award. Seemingly every week, Henry is breaking records and joining elite company, and this week is no different. While Week 18 overall is providing very little this season, the Ravens will have everything to play. Henry included. A very happy birthday for Henry may be on the horizon with a win in the books, division title secured, and another franchise record in his pocket. talkSPORT is your home of the NFL on UK radio, and you can stay up to date with all the latest from around the league via our dedicated ‘EndZone’ YouTube channel. talkSPORT will bring you live coverage across Week 18 with a double header featuring the Cincinnati Bengals @ Pittsburgh Steelers and the Minnesota Vikings @ Detroit Lions
