Derrick Henry benefits from Patrick Ricard's return to the Ravens offense; last year with Ricard on the field, Henry averaged over 6 yards per carry. The Ravens are expected to deploy significantly more 21 and 22 personnel packages with Ricard back after missing the entire season. Henry is positioned to see balanced offensive usage as the Ravens likely play through the run game with Lamar Jackson still not fully cleared from injury. The source expects the Ravens to lean on Henry and maintain a balanced approach rather than force a pass-heavy game plan, especially given the Bears' weakness against the run. The source highlights Henry as underowned relative to Jonathan Taylor: 'this is a week where Henry is not going to be very popular, has a always has a high ceiling' and 'Henry stands out to me a lot uh this week.' The source is skeptical of the Bears' run defense despite recent success, noting the Saints' dysfunction and questioning whether the Bears have truly turned the corner.
