The Baltimore Ravens should still be one of the best rushing teams in the league this season like always.
Yes, they lost both Gus Edwards and J.K. Dobbins to the Los Angeles Chargers this offseason.
However, they made the splash move to sign one of the best running backs of this era in Derrick Henry.
The four-time Pro-Bowler signed a two-year deal worth $16 million.
Head coach John Harbaugh spoke on The Rich Eisen Show this week about his plans for the rushing offense with Henry in the fold.
“It’s gonna be what we do. It’s gonna be Derrick Henry doing it within the structure of what we’ve built around Lamar…I think what it’s gonna look like is what it looked like in Tennessee – him running for a lot of yards,” the Super Bowl-winning head coach told viewers.

Henry should be the best offensive player that quarterback Lamar Jackson has ever played with.
That includes All-Pro tight end Mark Andrews and stud receiver Odell Beckham Jr.
The former NFL Offensive Player of the Year has over 9,500 career rushing yards and 90 rushing touchdowns.
Expect him to get a heavy dosage of carries despite being 30 years of age.
With Jackson being the most dangerous running quarterback in the league, opposing defenses will be very confused when they face this team.
They won’t know who will have the ball, and if Henry has the ball, good luck stopping him one-on-one.
The addition of Henry will certainly keep this team in Super Bowl contention, but can it help them win in the playoffs?
