Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry has a non-expressive response to being selected to the Pro Bowl

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry is one of the best players in the NFL and his explosiveness makes for some of the best highlights in the league.

 

 

In his first season with the Ravens (he played eight seasons with the Tennessee Titans), the former Alabama player will go to his third straight Pro Bowl.Henry has the second-most rushing yards in the NFL (1,783), only trailing Philadelphia Eagles’ Saquon Barkley (2,005).

Both averaged 5.8 yards per carry this season. Henry’s 14 rushing touchdowns are tied for the second-most in the league, only behind Buffalo’s James Cook (15). He paced the Ravens’ second-ranked rushing attack, which has averaged 185.6 yards per game, just a tick behind the Eagles’ 187.3.

“The King” signed in Baltimore this offseason and had his most productive season since 2020, proving that he is still a powerful weapon in his 30s.

Henry’s not impressed with being selected to the Pro Bowl

The Baltimore Ravens posted a video where the team’s General Manager, Eric DeCosta, tells Derrick Henry that he’s been selected to the Pro Bowl for all of his hard work during the 2024 season. “After the season you’ve had, I mean it’s expected.” DeCosta said.

The running back’s reaction? Priceless. “Cool.” Henry says, and then goes on to hear about who else got selected to the Pro Bowl. The player even looks more happy and excited for his teammates. DeCosta acknowledges that Derrick’s reaction might be due to the fact that the player is looking for the ultimate goal: to win his first Super Bowl.

“We got bigger things to do, obviously.” the General Manager added. Even though the Baltimore Ravens are one of the NFL’s most consistent teams with a winning mentality, they haven’t been able to get to the Super Bowl since 2013, when they beat the San Francisco 49ers to get their second championship (the first one was Super Bowl XXXV in 2001 against the New York Giants).

The Ravens have the mos Pro Bowlers in the league

Baltimore have a whopping nine Pro Bowlers on this year’s roster, the most in the league. The Detroit Lions have the second-most Pro Bowlers with seven and the Minnesota Vikings (six), Philadelphia Eagles (six), Kansas City Chiefs (five) and Dallas Cowboys (five) are the other teams with at least five Pro Bowlers.

The Ravens’ nine Pro Bowlers are the most they’ve had since 2019, when they tied the record with 13.

Baltimore had seven Pro Bowlers last season when it went 14-2 and were the AFC’s top seed entering the playoffs. Thursday’s Pro Bowl announcement is another point in the argument that this year’s team may be even better.

The Ravens’ only first-time Pro Bowlers is wide receiver Zay Flowers, who made history in his second season after topping 1,000 receiving yards. He is the first Raven to make the Pro Bowl as a wide receiver.
