Derrick Henry was dominant on Saturday night for the Baltimore Ravens’ offense in their playoff win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Henry finished the game with 186 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 26 carries. 

The former Alabama running back set the tone early in the first quarter for Baltimore by ripping off a 33-yard run on a direct snap and ending it off with a powerful open-field stiff arm at the expense of his former Crimson Tide teammate, Minkah Fitzpatrick. Henry would go on to score a six-yard touchdown in the second quarter. He continued to make plays against the Pittsburgh defense by starting the second half with a 44-yard touchdown. 

The 44-yard would help push Henry over 100 yards on the night, earning his fourth career postseason 150-plus yard rushing performance. Henry efforts would tie Denver Broncos’ half of fame tailback, Terrell Davis for most all-time in NFL playoff history.

Baltimore defeated the Steelers 28-14.
