Derrick Henry might as well be laughing in Jerry Jones’ face at this point

The Baltimore Ravens sure have to feel smart when they signed former Tennessee Titans Pro Bowl running back Derrick Henry. Adding the 2020 Offensive Player of the Year has paid dividends so far for the Ravens, despite their 1-2 record to start the year. But let’s not forgt that Henry was available to sign in free agency, and the Dallas Cowboys didn’t even bother to pick up the phone.

The Cowboys, who lost Tony Pollard to free agency, didn’t attempt to sign Henry. Instead, they stuck with the running backs they had in the room before bringing back Ezekiel Elliott, who si nowhere near the dominant player he was in his early years in Dallas. Not only did Henry run all over the Cowboys in Week 3, but Henry continued to show what he could do to the entire league.

In the first half of Baltimore’s game against the Buffalo Bills, Henry burst through the middle of the line of scrimmage and ran for an 87-yard touchdown…untouched. And this happened on Baltimore’s first offensive play of the game.

As if that wasn’t impressive enough, this is the longest run in Ravens franchise history…
