Derrick Henry keeps joining elite NFL company with milestone day for Ravens

Derrick Henry had a milestone day in helping his Baltimore Ravens win in overtime over the Cincinnati Bengals. He continues adding to a Hall of Fame resume, and all that's left is for him to keep chasing history.

In the first quarter on Sunday, Henry punched in a one-yard touchdown to give Baltimore an early lead. It was Henry's100th touchdown from scrimmage, his 96th rushing to go along with four receiving. He became the 27th player in NFL history to score 100 touchdowns.

Later in the first quarter, Henry gained his 18th rushing yard, which put him over 10,000 for his career.

He became just the 32nd player in NFL history to hit that milestone, and along the way jumped past Ricky Williams on the all time list to move into 31st all time. If he maintains his current rushing pace this season, Henry will jump all the way to 18th on the all time rushing list, passing all time greats like Eddie George and O.J. Simpson in the process.

Henry was bottled up for most of the day on Sunday, until the overtime period. Following a missed FG by Cincinnati, Henry took a pitch from Lamar Jackson and broke a 51-yard run that set up the game winning field goal by Justin Tucker for Baltimore's third consecutive win.

Henry entered the game as the NFL's leading rusher on the season, and after a 92-yard day, he'll likely hold onto that lead.

Running backs don't do the things that Henry does anymore. He's the last of his kind, a dying breed of a running back who is too stubborn to realize that the NFL isn't built for players like him anymore. But he continues bucking that trend, shouldering a heavier burden than any other back his age in the league.

Barring good health, Henry is going to race up the all time charts. Every Sunday over the next few seasons will be filled with more history for the legendary back.

He's a once in a generation talent, playing in the only era where he wouldn't be considered the best overall player in the league.
