Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry achieved another major career milestone by passing Pro Football Hall of Famer Eric Dickerson for ninth place on the NFL’s all-time rushing yardage list. The accomplishment took place during a game against the Dallas Cowboys in Brazil on September 27, 2026.

Henry entered the game needing to climb past Dickerson’s career mark of 13,259 rushing yards. During a strong first half, he gained 36 yards, which brought his career total to 13,356 rushing yards. The milestone became official early in the second quarter when Henry broke away for a 5-yard run, securing his spot inside the league’s top ten all-time rushers.

Franchise Records Broken in Brazil

In addition to climbing the league-wide leaderboard, the veteran running back achieved several milestones specific to the Baltimore Ravens franchise during the same matchup:

  • Passed Ray Rice to claim sole possession of second place on the Ravens’ all-time career rushing touchdowns list with 38 scores.
  • Tied tight end Mark Andrews for the most games with multiple touchdowns in Baltimore franchise history, reaching 12 such performances.
  • Recorded two touchdowns during the first half alone to help drive the Ravens’ offense forward.

With his place in the top ten securely locked in, Henry continues to chase further history as his productive career in Baltimore moves forward. Figures ahead of him on the all-time list include fellow legends of the game, with Pro Football Hall of Famer Jerome Bettis holding the next spot just ahead at eighth place.
