The Baltimore Ravens actively pursued former Tennessee Titans RB Derrick Henry at the trade deadline during the 2023 season. General manager Eric DeCosta admitted as much yesterday after the team held a press conference to introduce Henry’s new contract.
While they didn’t land him then, they signed him in free agency on a two-year deal worth reportedly $16 million. He takes the place of Gus Edwards and J.K. Dobbins, the former already gone via free agency. There’s a chance Dobbins returns—he’s recovering from another season-ending injury, but they may well simply choose to move on. They have Justice Hill and Keaton Mitchell to complement Henry, though the latter is recovering from a serious injury himself.
