Derrick Henry Snags 18-Yard TD Through the Air as Ravens Trail Falcons 17-15
Henry's receiving score cut the deficit to two, but a failed conversion kept Baltimore behind. He's now at 7 rush TDs through four games.
Goal-line and now receiving work make him a locked-in RB1.
- Henry: 18-yard receiving TD vs. Falcons
- 7 rush TDs in 4 games this season (2026)
- 91 PPR pts, our RB8 through 4 games
- Justice Hill broke a 47-yard run to set up score
- Andrews dropped the 2-point try, Ravens trail 17-15
Derrick Henry added a new wrinkle to his resume on Sunday, hauling in an 18-yard screen pass for a touchdown that pulled the Ravens within two of Atlanta, 17-15. After Baltimore kept stalling and settling for field goals early, this was the first time the offense actually punched one into the end zone — and it came with the ball in Henry's hands on a throw, not a handoff.
The score caps a brutally efficient start to the year for the big back. Henry is up to seven rushing touchdowns through just four games in 2026, and he's logged 374 rushing yards on the ground to go with 44 receiving yards on seven grabs. That production has him as our RB8 and the No. 25 overall player in our rankings, sitting on 91 PPR points on the season.
The drive itself was a two-man show. Justice Hill, lined up alongside Henry at the snap, ripped off a 47-yard run to flip the field and drop Baltimore into scoring range. A couple of snaps later, Henry took the screen, got up to top speed, and finished it off. It was a reminder that even in a crowded backfield, the touches that matter are flowing to the guy you rostered in the first round.
The Two-Point Sting
The one sour note: Baltimore couldn't tie it. On the ensuing two-point try, Mark Andrews couldn't reel in a pass in the end zone, leaving the Ravens staring at a 17-15 hole instead of a 17-17 deadlock. Andrews has been quiet all year — 18 catches for 149 yards and one touchdown over four games, worth just 39 PPR points and a TE16 rank in our model.
The Fantasy Fallout
For Henry managers, nothing to overthink here. The goal-line monopoly was already there, and now he's showing he can score through the air too — that's a ceiling-raiser in PPR formats. Start him every week and don't blink.
Hill is a deeper story. His 47-yard burst is the kind of explosive play that occasionally pops, but he's the No. 58 running back on our board for a reason — 15 PPR points on the year, almost entirely dependent on Henry sitting. Leave him on the wire in standard leagues. Andrews, meanwhile, is a TE2 you tolerate rather than trust; the drop stings, but his role hasn't changed enough to cut him just yet. Hold and hope the touchdown volume ticks up.
