Derrick Henry News

Derrick Henry Expected to Remain in Baltimore Through the Trade Deadline

Saturday, November 7, 4:28 AM

The Baltimore Ravens are not expected to move Derrick Henry before the upcoming NFL trade deadline on Tuesday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Across nine games in 2026, Henry has recorded 689 rushing yards and eight touchdowns on 175 carries and hauled in 12 catches for 75 yards and a touchdown on 14 targets. However, the 32-year-old is currently averaging a career-low 3.9 yards per carry after logging over five yards per carry in each of his first two seasons with Baltimore in 2024 and 2025. With Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (thumb) likely to miss the remainder of the 2026 season, Baltimore could look to move Henry and reset for 2027. Instead, it appears that they will look to make another run with Jackson and Henry next year.

Jahmyr Gibbs News

Jahmyr Gibbs Remains an Elite Running Back Option in Week 9

Saturday, November 7, 5:06 AM

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs has put together an excellent 2026 season so far, recording 773 rushing yards and eight touchdowns on 157 carries and hauling in 34 catches for 285 yards and two touchdowns on 44 targets. Gibbs leads the NFL with 191 total touches, and he's logged at least 25 touches in five out of his seven games played. The Lions got RB2 Sione Vaki more involved in Week 8, as Vaki recorded a season-high 11 carries against the Minnesota Vikings. However, Gibbs still saw 23 carries and four targets as a receiver out of the backfield. In Week 9, Gibbs and the Lions will take on a Miami Dolphins defense that has been solid against the run, ranking 10th in the NFL in yards per carry allowed (3.8). Still, Gibbs profiles as a high-end RB1 option in Week 9 for fantasy managers.
