After games he broadcasts for FOX Sports during the 2024 NFL season, Tom Brady is choosing one standout star from that game as the LFG Player of the Game.
For Week 3’s Baltimore Ravens 28-25 win over the Dallas Cowboys, that honor went to veteran Baltimore running back Derrick Henry. In the perennial Pro Bowler’s best game in a Ravens uniform thus far, Henry recorded 25 carries for 151 yards and two touchdowns, averaging 6 yards per carry.
Henry told Brady that in practice this week after an 0-2 start to the year, he challenged the Ravens’ offensive line to set the tone early in Sunday’s game. Baltimore did just that, while jumping out to a 28-6 lead before holding off a late Dallas rally.
“I think those guys did a great job and took that to heart,” Henry said. “We just wanted to get it going, get the momentum on our side and keep the momentum on our side. We started doing that early, but as the game went on, it kind of flaked out, so we gotta fix that.
“Just glad to get the win in this environment, and a great game as well.”
The Ravens are now 1-2 on the season, as are the Cowboys. Check out Brady’s previous LFG Player of the Game winners here!
