The Baltimore Ravens will rely heavily on their running back room during the 2024 season. The team signed veteran rusher Derrick Henry away from the Tennessee Titans and has other talented players, such as Keaton Mitchell and Justice Hill, waiting in the wings.
While Mitchell is currently injured, Hill is expected to have a big role behind Henry as the team’s main backup at the position. Hill was asked about the relationship that he has with the veteran and said that the two are just having fun and working, trying to get better every day while they’re at it.
“We’re just having fun, and we’re working; we’re trying to get better every single day, and that’s what [Derrick Henry] brings to the room, too. He’s just serious, making sure we’re working and getting better every day, and that just feeds throughout the whole room. And then, when we’re out here, we’re just having fun; I mean, it’s a game, and we just try to have fun with it. It’s easy to get caught up in all the business side of stuff, but we’re just having fun, too.”
Hill has shown his value over the years but took a step forward in his offensive role last season. He looks prepared to take even more of a jump in 2024, something that would be of great delight to the Ravens.
