"Derrick Henry rushed for a season-high 216 yards and matched a career high with four touchdown runs as the Baltimore Ravens kept their playoff hopes alive by defeating the Green Bay Packers 41-24 on Saturday night. Henry had three touchdown runs in the first half and then scored again on a 25-yard run with 1:56 left in the game. His seventh career 200-yard rushing performance moved him ahead of Adrian Peterson and OJ Simpson for the most in NFL history."
"Both teams were missing their starting quarterbacks as Baltimore's Lamar Jackson deals with a back injury while Green Bay's Jordan Love is in concussion protocol. The two replacement starters Baltimore's Tyler Huntley and Green Bay's Malik Willis were both effective in a game that featured only one punt. Willis went 18 of 21 for a career-high 288 yards and one touchdown, and he also rushed for 60 yards and two touchdowns before leaving after aggravating a shoulder injury midway through the fourth quarter."
Derrick Henry delivered a dominant performance with a season-high 216 rushing yards and four touchdowns, including three in the first half and a 25-yard score late in the game. Henry's seventh 200-yard outing moved him past Adrian Peterson and OJ Simpson for the NFL lead, and his 36 carries were a career high. The Ravens beat the Packers 41-24 to stay alive for a playoff spot at 8-8, contingent on the Steelers-Browns outcome. Green Bay started Malik Willis, who passed for 288 yards and ran for 60 before departing with a shoulder issue, and Baltimore outrushed Green Bay 307-79.
