Ravens’ Derrick Henry unsure if new contract will be his last

By NFL Premium News May 19, 2025 | 11:32 PM

Star running back Derrick Henry’s two-year extension — which he signed on Monday — will keep him with the Baltimore Ravens through 2027, though the nine-year veteran wouldn’t commit to continuing his career when the deal expires.
Henry will be 33 at the end of the deal but seems to be getting better with age after posting 1,921 rushing yards in 2024, his first season with Baltimore. That total is the most ever by an NFL running back at age 30 or over.
“I think it’s just focus on this year and then focus to continue to get better year after year that I’m here — that’s always going to be my focus,” the 31-year-old Henry said. “I love football, I love playing. I know people look at my age, but I don’t really try to focus on that. I just focus on, ‘How can Derrick Henry be better, how can Derrick Henry help the Ravens get to where they want to get to?'”
Henry displayed that determination to keep improving by taking only a week off after the Ravens’ AFC divisional round loss before resuming his workout routine.
Per multiple reports, Henry’s extension is worth $30 million and includes $25 million fully guaranteed. ESPN and NFL Network reported last week that it’s the largest per-year salary for a running back over 30 years old in NFL history.
“(It’s) just both of us coming to agreement with both made sense on both sides and us both being happy with,” Henry said. “I’m very happy that we were finally able to get that done.”
A five-time Pro Bowl selection, Henry is the NFL’s active leading rusher with 11,423 yards and 106 touchdowns in 136 career games (105 starts) with the Tennessee Titans and Ravens. He has seven consecutive seasons with at least 10 rushing touchdowns.
