Derrick Henry’s Third Straight Fumble Helps Lions Beat Ravens 38-30

The turnover streak starkly contrasts with his three fumbles over 652 touches across 2023–24.

Overview

  • Aidan Hutchinson punched the ball loose from Henry with 8:31 left in the fourth quarter, and D.J. Reed recovered at the Baltimore 16 to set up a Detroit field goal.
  • Henry has fumbled in each of Baltimore’s first three games, with two coming in fourth quarters, as the Ravens dropped to 1-2.
  • The running back slammed his helmet and stumbled onto the bench after the turnover, then apologized postgame, saying he was at a loss for words and would keep working to fix it.
  • Head coach John Harbaugh said the issue must be corrected and expressed confidence it will not be the norm, noting the defender delivered a blind shot on the ball.
  • Henry’s three fumbles have come in roughly 43 touches this season after totaling three across 652 touches in the previous two seasons, with Baltimore heading to Kansas City next.
