Ravens running back Derrick Henry isn’t even thinking about retiring , which means he’s going to add to an already impressive list of career achievements. Up next is moving up the all-time rushing touchdown ranks. Henry’s next rushing touchdown will be the 123rd of his career, which will tie Marcus Allen for the third-most in NFL history. At that point, only Emmitt Smith (164) and LaDainian Tomlinson (145) will have more career rushing touchdowns than Henry. If Henry runs for at least 1,500 yards this season, he’ll be the only running back in NFL history with six 1,500-yard seasons in his career. Currently, Henry and Barry Sanders are the only running backs with five 1,500-yard seasons. Henry has 13,018 rushing yards in his career, which is the 10th-most in NFL history. If he has one of his typical seasons, he’ll move up to sixth all-time, ahead of Eric Dickerson (13,259), Jerome Bettis (13,662), LaDainian Tomlinson (13,684) and Curtis Martin (14,101)

After rushing title, James Cook is looking forward to even bigger things

Bills running back James Cook led the league in rushing last season with 1,621 yards. It came after a hold-in during training camp as he sought a new contract that he received after more than a week of not practicing. Last year, though, was last year. “I don’t like to talk about last year, because last year is in the past . This year is a new year,” Cook said, via John Wawrow of the Associated Press. “Put last year behind me, and just come out here to do it again.” Only two players since 2001 have won back-to-back rushing titles — Derrick Henry (2019-20) and LaDainian Tomlinson (2006-07). “I expect James Cook to take another step this year in different elements of his game and continue to be the workhorse as a runner,” new coach Joe Brady said. “And he wants it, right? He had such an incredible season last year. And without diving into exactly what, this is what I told him: He has got to get better. We can’t take steps backward.” Cook, 26, said he is “looking forward to doing even bigger things.” He concedes his ball security has got to improve after losing four of seven fumbles last season, including one at the Denver 30 in a 33-30 overtime loss in the divisional round. “I fumbled, so I just got to fix it,” Cook said. “The ball is everybody’s job, and that’s my job. I’m willing to protect it.” The Bills are only 5-4 in the postseason in Cook’s four seasons, losing in the divisional round three times and the AFC Championship Game once. They are the first team in NFL history to win a playoff game in six consecutive postseasons without reaching a Super Bowl. “It’s on us. The ball is in our hands,” Cook said. “We control our own destiny. So whatever we do is on us. Eventually, it’s going to happen.”

Bills quarterback Josh Allen is closing in on a rushing milestone that only four quarterbacks have previously reached: Five thousand yards. Allen, who has 4,721 career rushing yards, can become the fifth quarterback in NFL history with 5,000 rushing yards this season. If he gains yardage at his career average of 36.9 rushing yards per game, Allen would reach 5,000 yards in his eighth game of this season. With 5,000 yards, Allen would join Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (6,522 yards) and retired quarterbacks Michael Vick (6,109 yards), Cam Newton (5,628 yards) and Russell Wilson (5,568 yards) as the only quarterbacks ever to reach 5,000 rushing yards. Allen is already the NFL’s all-time leader in rushing touchdowns for a quarterback, with 79. He has at least six rushing touchdowns in every season of his career, and if he crosses the goal line six times this year, he’ll become just the fourth player ever with at least six rushing touchdowns in nine consecutive seasons, along with Marshall Faulk (10), LaDainian Tomlinson (10) and Jim Brown (nine)
