Derrick Henry’s recent signing with the Baltimore Ravens aims to bolster their ground attack. Yet, fans are curious about how their offense will mesh with Lamar Jackson, a quarterback known for his rushing abilities.

Last year, the Ravens granted Lamar Jackson the contract extension he sought, securing the quarterback in Baltimore for at least five more years. With this commitment, Jackson aims to pursue success with the AFC North squad in the near future.

However, the team’s front office acknowledges that Jackson can’t carry the load alone. This offseason, they acquired Derrick Henry, one of the most dominant running backs in recent years, to provide support for the quarterback in the upcoming 2024 NFL season.

Nevertheless, John Harbaugh holds a different perspective. The head coach is enthusiastic about the prospect of Henry and Jackson sharing the field, believing they will create greater confusion for their rivals, who will be left guessing as to who will carry the ball each time.

“Lamar is going to play the way Lamar plays, and that’s what I’m for,” Harbaugh said. I love the way he plays the game. I think he’s intuitive and intelligent, just a phenomenal football player. He sees the game in very unique ways and very smart ways, so I’m for him playing the way he plays. I think that Derrick Henry being there, plus Lamar, plus the other guys, it’s a good formula.”
