Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry gave away backpacks for kids going back to school on Sunday.
The impact a player can leave on an organization and its fans goes well beyond what happens on the football field.
The opportunity to get involved in the Baltimore community was something he eyed early into his tenure and he has plans on doing even more in the future. Henry, 30, signed a two-year $16 million deal with the Ravens this offseason. Along with being a former All-Pro, he's a four-time Pro Bowler and won the Offensive Player of the Year in 2020.
Henry has led the league in rushing yards and touchdowns twice and he's led the NFL in carries four times, including the last two seasons.
