Ravens RB Derrick Henry increases his success with 199 rushing yards against Bills

7) Derrick Henry adds to his career accomplishments despite narrowly missing the 200-yard mark

The King started Sunday Night Football with a bang: a Ravens-record 87-yard touchdown run on Baltimore’s first play from scrimmage.

This one run accounted for almost all of the Bills’ offensive output in the first half (90 total yards).

It was Henry’s seventh 70-yard rushing touchdown of his career, tying Adrian Peterson and Chris Johnson for the most such touchdowns in NFL history.

Since 2017, Henry has scored four rushing touchdowns of at least 70 yards in primetime games (the rest of the NFL has a combined four of those touchdowns in that span).

On the Ravens’ final possession, with most of both teams’ starters on the sideline, Baltimore pushed Henry back onto the field. The Ravens were ahead 35-10 and the game was all but over – but an important milestone was still within reach.

Henry had 196 rushing yards at the time and was going for his seventh career game with more than 200 yards on the ground. That would have been significant as it would have broken the tie with Adrian Peterson and OJ Simpson for most games with 200+ rushing yards in NFL history.

Henry had two more rushing attempts but fell just one yard short of 200.

Until a stat correction, Henry lost one rushing yard on that fumble into the end zone. Hard break.
