"This has been a memorable year for Henry, who entered this season at No. 19 on the league's all-time rushing list. Henry climbed past seven Hall of Fame running backs this year: Thurman Thomas (No. 16), Franco Harris (No. 15), Marcus Allen (No. 14), Edgerrin James (No. 13), Marshall Faulk (No. 12), Jim Brown (No. 11) and Tony Dorsett (No. 10)."
"Needing 64 yards rushing before the game to get into the top 10, Henry set a physical tone from the start and exceeded that amount on the Ravens' first two drives, passing Tony Dorsett with a 5-yard run late in the first quarter. Henry, 31, cracked the top 10 in his 153rd career game, which is 20 fewer than Dorsett."
Derrick Henry rushed for 216 yards and four touchdowns on 36 carries in a 41-24 win at Green Bay, marking a career-high workload. Henry moved into 10th on the NFL's all-time rushing list and had totaled 12,743 career rushing yards by the end of the first quarter, with Eric Dickerson next at 13,259. Henry reached the top 10 in his 153rd career game, 20 fewer than Tony Dorsett. Henry entered the season at No. 19 and passed seven Hall of Famers this year. After criticism for limited late-game carries against New England, Baltimore involved Henry early and often.
