Derrick Henry Applauds Rushing Leader Saquon Barkley
Ravens RB Derrick Henry gave Eagles RB Saquon Barkley a shoutout after his record-setting 255-yard day.

Barkley's big game, which featured 70- and 72-yard touchdown runs, was the ninth-most rushing yards in a game in league history. Adrian Peterson still holds the record with 296 yards (2007) and former Raven Jamal Lewis is No. 2 with 295 yards (2003).

Barkley is the NFL's rushing leader with 1,392 yards so far this season, one spot ahead of Henry, who has 1,185 yards. They've both played 11 games.

Henry will have a chance to re-take the lead on "Monday Night Football" in the same building against the Los Angeles Chargers.

The two running backs are both in the running for MVP and/or Offensive Player of the Year, but Henry said last week that he roots for all running backs – especially ones that have proven their value after switching teams in free agency this past offseason.
