Derrick Henry scored a shocking 87-yard TD on Ravens’ first play by running over 20 miles per hour

Derrick Henry is an actual superhero.

Every time we look over at him, the legend of Derrick Henry only grows. In some ways, the superstar Baltimore Ravens running back is almost more of an actual Mack truck, an unstoppable force in the open field whose skills have perfectly translated to Baltimore’s offense alongside reigning MVP Lamar Jackson.

We saw a perfect example of this from the jump as the Ravens squared off with the Buffalo Bills on Sunday Night Football.

On Baltimore’s first offensive play from scrimmage, Henry took a run off right tackle and got a full head of steam en route to a stunning 87-yard touchdown. Because once he gets his momentum going, no one (read: no one ever) is going to bring Henry down.

Henry was so fast on this touchdown run that, according to Next Gen Stats, he reached a top speed of 21.29 miles per hour. Funnily enough, Henry has the most touchdown runs of at least 20 miles per hour since 2018, trailing only Tyreek Hill … a much smaller receiver.

This is your general reminder that Henry is listed as 6-foot-3, 247 pounds, and runs as fast as a vehicle in average American city neighborhood traffic:

Henry is still so unbelievably good, except now he’s playing for a marquee team. We should call ourselves lucky that we get to witness him play football.
