Henry agrees record $30 million extension with Ravens
Veteran running back Derrick Henry has signed a two-year extension with the Baltimore Ravens, the club confirmed Wednesday.
Financial terms were not disclosed but US media reported the 31-year-old had inked a $30 million extension, which if confirmed would be the largest deal ever offered to a running back over the age of 30.
Henry joined the Ravens last year after spending the first eight seasons of his career with the Tennessee Titans.
The 6ft 3in (1.91m), 247lb (112kg) running back is widely regarded as one of the best and most destructive runners in the NFL.
Last season Henry finished second in the league in rushing yards with 1,921, second only to the Philadelphia Eagles' Saquon Barkley (2,005 yards).
He averaged a career-high 5.9 yards per carry and finished the season with 16 rushing touchdowns, forming a potent offensive partnership with Baltimore's dual threat running back Lamar Jackson.
Henry's contract extension, worth $15 million a season, makes him the third highest paid running back in the league behind the Eagles' Barkley ($20.6 million) and the San Francisco 49ers' Christian McCaffrey ($19 million).
