NFL rushing record Derrick Henry Emmitt Smith all-time rushing yards Baltimore Ravens

NFL Hall of Famer Emmitt Smith believes Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry has the potential to break his all-time career rushing record of 18,355 yards. Smith cited Henry’s physical stature and disciplined body maintenance as key factors in his ability to sustain high performance at age 32.

Henry currently sits 10th on the all-time rushing list with approximately 13,162 career yards, leaving him 5,193 yards short of Smith’s milestone. To reach the record, Henry would need to maintain an average of roughly 61.8 yards per game over at least 84 more games.

As Henry continues his career, he is positioned to surpass several other Hall of Famers. He is currently within striking distance of Eric Dickerson, Jerome Bettis, LaDainian Tomlinson, and Curtis Martin.
