Derrick Henry needed five yards to start the second quarter against the Dallas Cowboys. He got them and moved past Eric Dickerson into ninth place on the NFL’s all-time rushing list.

Dickerson finished his Hall of Fame career with 13,259 rushing yards. Henry entered the 2026 season with 13,018, according to the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s career list, and passed Dickerson during Sunday’s game in Brazil. Henry just scored his second touchdown of the game. Henry now has 128 career touchdowns and is third all time.

It was one of two milestones for Henry. His rushing touchdown tied Ray Rice for second in Ravens history with 37 rushing scores. It also gave Henry 11 career seasons with at least five rushing touchdowns, a league record according to Ravens Communications.
