STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Henry's 144 yards and 3 TDs in Week 1 confirm elite efficiency in outside zone scheme.

Henry opened the season looking dominant with 24 carries, 144 rushing yards, 3 TDs, 1 reception, and 19 receiving yards. OC Declan Doyle's integration of outside zone runs is an ideal setup for Henry's running style, which requires time to build speed and press the line before accelerating. Week 1 marked his 25th career game with 140+ rushing yards, confirming his elite efficiency. The Ravens' ground game operating as their offensive engine positions Henry as a workhorse back.
