Overview

  • Henry scored two rushing touchdowns in the Ravens’ Week 3 win over the Cowboys in Brazil, pushing his career rushing TD total to 135 and moving him past Marcus Allen.
  • The Week 3 performance also moved Henry past Eric Dickerson into ninth place on the NFL career rushing yards list with 13,319 yards.
  • Through three games in the 2026 season Henry has 301 rushing yards on 66 carries and six rushing touchdowns, showing consistent production early in the year.
  • At 32 and in his 11th NFL season, Henry is carrying a heavy workload for Baltimore because injuries on the offensive line have increased the team’s reliance on his between-the-tackles running.
  • Henry now trails only LaDainian Tomlinson (151) and Emmitt Smith (183) for career rushing touchdowns, a positioning that raises questions about his durability and the Ravens’ offensive plan as the season progresses.
