Ravens Or Steelers With Best Odds To Sign RB Derrick Henry?

The Baltimore Ravens have a ton of questions to answer as free agency approaches.

The Baltimore Ravens have a ton of questions to answer as free agency approaches. With two running backs available on the open market, will general manager Eric DeCosta resign either Gus Edwards or J.K. Dobbins, or look elsewhere to fill out the roster?

There are several free-agent ball carriers that DeCosta could look at, including Josh Jacobs, Derrick Henry, Saquon Barkley and others.

But DraftKings Sportsbook has the Ravens as the favorites to acquire Henry, the durable and still powerful running back who has spent his entire career with the Tennessee Titans.

Baltimore is listed with +200 odds to sign Henry on the open market while the rival Steelers - who have also been linked to Henry - are +6000.

Pittsburgh is in better shape with Najee Harris on the roster and under contract while former Ravens and Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell has expressed interest in returning to the league and has indicated he only wants to play for Pittsburgh - where he began his career.

In 2023, the Ravens had the best rushing attack by most statistical categories, and that was despite not having a true featured back. The addition of Henry would fix that, and would most likely only strengthen that running game, and complement quarterback Lamar Jackson's passing game.
