Harbaugh: Plan not to give RB Derrick Henry 30+ carries per game

Sep 09, 2024

John Harbaugh said the Ravens didn’t bring Derrick Henry to Baltimore with the plan to give him 30+ carries each game.

Related players: Lamar Jackson, Justice Hill, Keaton Mitchell

Fantasy Impact:

Jackson ran 16 times in Week 1 to Henry's 13. Zay Flowers had two runs with Hill getting just one. Hill was involved in the passing game with six catches, however. For what it's worth, Jackson missed practice Monday with no word form the team as to why, but it sounds like the Ravens don't play to change their offense. It remains to be seen if Jackson can handle that many runs a week going forward. It's possible Mitchell, upon his return at some point this season, could help out in the run game but he doesn't seem to be close to a return just yet.

Browns plan to sign free agent running back Royce Freeman to the practice squad.

Fantasy Impact:

Freeman did pretty well when he saw action with the Rams toward the end of last season. He was with Dallas this summer where he drew some hype, and for about a week the team had us convinced he may see significant action for the Cowboys. However, he was eventually released.

Packers are placing rookie RB MarShawn Lloyd on injured reserve due to an ankle injury.

Fantasy Impact:

Lloyd dealt with a hamstring injury leading up to the season and has now injured his ankle enough to be placed on IR, and he'll miss the next four games. The team did sign Brooks from their practice squad but Wilson looks to be the backup to Jacobs.
