Derrick Henry's march up the record books surpassed a prominent name Sunday night in Buffalo.

With his 107th rushing touchdown, Henry surpassed Jim Brown in career touchdowns, moving into sixth most in NFL history.

Henry ripped off a 30-yard touchdown run featuring a punishing stiff-arm on Bills safety Cole Bishop.

Henry is now three rushing touchdowns behind Walter Payton, 13 behind Adrian Peterson, and 16 behind the top three and a tie with Marcus Allen. Henry had 16 rushing touchdowns in 2024.

The 31-year-old tailback finished the first half with 123 rushing yards to reach 48 career 100-yard rushing games, passing Hall of Famers Franco Harris and LaDainian Tomlinson for the 11th most in league history. The other number fans will be watching closely is whether Henry can become the first running back in NFL history to have two 2,000-yard rushing seasons (which would also come with a role in an Adam Sandler movie).

As a team, the Ravens reached 150 rushing yards for the ninth straight game to tie for the longest streak in the last 50 seasons.
