The Baltimore Ravens have agreed to a contract extension with star running back Derrick Henry, the team announced on Wednesday.

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapaport, the two-year deal is worth $30 million, with $25 million guaranteed. He will remain in Baltimore through at least the 2027 season.

"Ravens, I'm appreciative & grateful for everyone a part of this great organization & a BIG S/O to all my teammates to be able to make this possible," Henry said on social media. "Thank you Flock Nation for always supporting . Working as hard I can to be able to contribute to us holding up that trophy when it's all said & done."

Henry, a five-time Pro Bowl performer, was signed by the Ravens in the offseason of 2024. He went on to rush for 1,921 yards with a league-high 16 touchdowns.

He presented a dominant offensive option, alongside quarterback Lamar Jackson, who passed for 4,172 yards with 41 touchdowns last season.

Henry turned 31 in January and is entering his 10th NFL season.
