A solid performance on Sunday at Buffalo will put him ahead of a pair of Hall of Famers on the all-time rushing list.<\/p>\n<p>Henry enters the Week 8 game with 13,597 career rushing yards. With only 66 yards, he\u2019ll pass Jerome Bettis for No. 8 on the career list. With 88, Henry will leapfrog LaDainian Tomlinson.<\/p>\n<p>If, along the way, Henry scores a rushing touchdown, he\u2019ll join Hall of Famers Marshall Faulk and Marcus Allen as the only players with 40 or more rushing touchdowns with multiple teams.<\/p>\n<p>Faulk did it with the Colts and the Rams. Allen did it with the Raiders and the Chiefs. Henry has previously gotten there with the Titans.<\/p>\n<p>The overriding question for Henry is how high he can go on the career rushing list. The current record holder, Hall of Famer Emmitt Smith, believes Henry <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nfl\/profootballtalk\/rumor-mill\/news\/emmitt-smith-thinks-derrick-henry-can-break-all-time-rushing-record\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">can catch and beat<\/a> Smith\u2019s all-time record of 18,355 yards.<\/p>\n<p>Henry needs 4,758 yards to match Smith. To get there, Henry probably will have to finish 2026 strong and keep it going for four more years.<\/p>\n<p>By then, it\u2019s possible that Henry will be playing for a third team. It would be fitting if the Cowboys \u2014 who weren\u2019t interested when Henry became a free agent \u2014 would be the team with which Henry breaks Smith\u2019s record.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ravens running back Derrick Henry, who turns 33 in early January, continues to get it done at a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":901766,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-901765","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/901765","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=901765"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/901765\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/901766"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=901765"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=901765"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=901765"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
