Derrick Henry had an epic 2024 season with the Baltimore Ravens, and he’s already pumped to get the 2025 campaign going

Henry posted “run it back” on his Instagram Stories underneath a screenshot of general manager Eric DeCosta praising the veteran running back.

DeCosta also hinted that the Ravens would consider signing Henry to a contract extension:

“Derrick proved he had a lot left in the tank. We’ll look at that… I’m so grateful Derrick chose us last year.”

Asked about an extension for RB Derrick Henry, Ravens GM Eric DeCosta said, “we’ll look at that.”
Henry is signed through the 2025 season. DeCosta said he was happy that Henry chose to sign with Baltimore last offseason.

The 31-year-old Henry proved to be the perfect fit for the Ravens, rushing 325 times for 1,921 yards and 16 touchdowns. Most running backs generally start to slow down in their early 30s—especially running backs who have logged 280 carries in five of the past six seasons like Henry, a significant workload—but he hasn’t lost a step.

His long-term future remains to be seen, though he’ll be in Baltimore for at least the 2025 season after signing a two-year, $16 million deal with the Ravens a year ago. By all accounts, the signing was a steal for the Baltimore, and sweetening that deal a bit for Henry would make a lot of sense.
