When the Ravens signed Derrick Henry to a 2-year, $16M contract this past offseason, some expected adjustments from both the Ravens and The King to make the marriage work. One local talking head who has pretended to be an NFL Insider nearly as long as Jerry Jones has pretended to be an NFL GM, cast serious doubt on the newly formed bond. He suggested that the contrasting style of offense both players were accustomed to, would clash and the results could fall well short of expectations.
Well, said “insider” who has in fact fallen well short of early expectations, has eaten more words in his career than Joey Chestnut has Coney Island hot dogs.
