Derrick Henry s Surprising Bust in Week 6 Loss

Sunday, October 18, 12:23 PM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry was held to a season-low 17 carries for just 58 yards and a costly fourth-quarter fumble in an upset loss to the Cleveland Browns in Week 6. The superstar back was expected to carry an extra-heavy workload with Lamar Jackson (ankle) sidelined and backup quarterback Tyler Huntley under center. Expectations were also high because the Browns had just allowed 116 rushing yards and a touchdown on 24 carries to Jets backup running back Braelon Allen the previous week. Baltimore's offensive line struggled beyond blocking for Henry, allowing Huntley to be sacked three times. Henry's late fumble that led to Cleveland's comeback punctuated his bust performance.

Cam Skattebo Praised for Response to Week 6 Demotion

Thursday, October 22, 8:33 AM

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo drew praise from offensive coordinator Matt Nagy for the way he handled last week's demotion. According to Dan Duggan of The Athletic, Nagy called Skattebo's response "impressive" and described him as a "true pro." The second-year back was told before Sunday's loss to New Orleans that Najee Harris would start after Skattebo committed his fourth fumble of the season against Washington in Week 5. He ended up playing just six offensive snaps without a carry or target, even though he entered the game as New York's leading rusher with 294 yards on 81 attempts. Harris was released Tuesday, which leaves Skattebo competing with Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Devin Singletary for opportunities against Houston. Head coach John Harbaugh has acknowledged that none of his running backs has established himself as the clear lead option, so the backfield distribution is still unsettled heading into Week 7.
