Henry and Allen Chase a 90-Year TD Record — and Your Fantasy Edge

Two of the league's biggest fantasy weapons are staring down a record that's older than most of the Hall of Famers who set it. Derrick Henry and Josh Allen are both riding hot rushing-touchdown streaks, and each is within reach of nine straight games with a rushing score — a mark shared by Jim Brown (1958), Emmitt Smith (1995) and Stephen Davis (1999).
The numbers behind the chase are gaudy. Henry has already punched in 6 rushing TDs through three games this 2026 season, good for 75 PPR points and the RB8 slot in our rankings (#25 overall). Allen's been just as violent at the goal line: 6 rush TDs to go with 5 passing scores across his first three games, stacking up 100 PPR points as our QB2 (#6 overall).
The Storylines Are Loaded
Henry gets his crack at history against the Titans — the team that made him a star. Allen's shot comes in Buffalo's first home game at the new stadium, against the rival Patriots. Both are the kind of script that tends to end with a ball spiked in the end zone.
There's bonus trivia riding on Henry specifically. Two more scores and he passes Randy Moss (37) for sole possession of fourth on the all-time multi-TD-game list, trailing only Emmitt Smith (39), LaDainian Tomlinson (44) and Jerry Rice (46). A pair of rushing TDs would also tie him with Marshall Faulk and Marcus Allen at 40-plus rushing scores for multiple franchises.
The Fantasy Fallout
Henry is as pure a floor-plus-ceiling play as fantasy offers right now — goal-line monopoly, volume, and a revenge spot. Start him everywhere, full stop. Allen is slightly more nuanced: he's still an elite QB1, but note his form has dipped 1.7 fantasy points below his season average over the last five games. That's a shrug for most lineups, not a sit.
Bottom line: both are automatic starters, and the record chase only sweetens the TD equity. Henry's the better bet to actually hit the mark given his rushing-score rate and the matchup, so if you're deciding which name to hype in your league chat this week, point at the Ravens' back.
