JUST-IN: Ravens Considered Top Trade Target
Could Tennessee Titans Derrick Henry be a trade target for the Baltimore Ravens?
Could the Baltimore Ravens move for Tennessee Titans All-Pro running back Derrick Henry before the trade deadline?
“The Ravens are second in the NFL with 1,015 rushing yards, but QB Lamar Jackson’s 363 yards will drop them to 21st,” Yardbarker wrote.
Elementary school student J.K. With Dobbins injured and a torn Achilles tendon, the Ravens won’t average 49.4 yards per game this season.
Since becoming a full-time starter in 2018, Henry has averaged 97.7 YPG in 77 games.
The Titans are currently last in the AFC South at 2-4, with the Jacksonville Jaguars in first place at 5-2.
Tennessee has already made big trades, sending All-Pro safety Kevin Byard to the Philadelphia Eagles for Terrell Edmunds, a 2024 fifth-round pick and a 2024 sixth-round pick.
If they sell, Henry could be the next to go, and the Ravens look like a likely contender. Baltimore is hosting the Super Bowl this season and appears to be a contender.
“Titans insider Buck Reising says All-Pro could be traded, Baltimore Ravens considered team ‘most interested’ in acquiring All-Pro.” reported Spun.
“Henry is in the final year of a four-year, $50 million contract, and the Titans have made moves that indicate they will be sellers rather than buyers.”

There is a clear need for defenseman no. 1 and Henry would fill that need.
This season, Henry has 98 carries for 425 yards and three touchdowns and has added 11 receptions for 117 yards.
The Titans have already gotten plenty of contact with rookie running back Tyje Spears when Henry is healthy, which could be a sign they’re ready to take the next step.
Henry has been one of the NFL’s best running backs over the past four seasons, earning three Pro Bowl nominations and the 2020 Offensive Player of the Year award.
