Derrick Henry Dominates Steelers In Wild Card Win

Sunday, January 12, 9:56 AM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry almost ran for two football fields against the Pittsburgh Steelers on the way to a 28-14 win. The superstar back finished with 186 yards and two touchdowns on 26 carries and didn't even participate in the passing game. Henry was able to break off big runs by simply outrunning the defense, and he flashed the devastating stiff arm when he slapped Minkah Fitzpatrick out of the picture. The Ravens' possible opponents in the next round are the Bills and Texans, who Henry has posted 199 and 147 yards against this season.

Najee Harris Efficient As Receiver In Loss To Ravens

Sunday, January 12, 12:20 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris handled six carries for 17 yards and came down with all three of his targets for 41 receiving yards in a Wild Card Round loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The Steelers had very little success on the ground throughout the contest and were forced to lean on the passing game after trailing 21-0 at halftime. Harris contributed in the third quarter as he turned short completions into nine, 21, and 11-yard gains. Although his play this season was not necessarily consistent for fantasy purposes, Harris turned in a fourth-straight campaign with at least 1,000 rushing yards. Because Pittsburgh declined to pick up his fifth-year option in 2024, the 26-year-old will search for a new deal and potentially a new home this offseason.
