Derrick Henry’s NFL Top 100 ranking is official: the Baltimore Ravens running back is No. 15 on the player-voted list for 2026. The placement keeps Henry among the league’s most respected stars, even though he moved down eight spots from last year.

The ranking follows another high-volume season from one of football’s most durable runners. Baltimore’s official team report notes that Henry surpassed 1,500 rushing yards for the second consecutive year and the fifth time in his career. He also scored 16 rushing touchdowns for a second straight season.

This is Henry’s eighth consecutive appearance in the NFL Top 100 and his fifth finish inside the top 20. Those benchmarks carry extra weight because current players cast the ballots. At 32, Henry is still being evaluated by his peers as one of the NFL’s premier difference-makers.

Henry joins four other Ravens on the 2026 list. Wide receiver Zay Flowers is No. 71, quarterback Lamar Jackson is No. 69, linebacker Roquan Smith is No. 65 and safety Kyle Hamilton is No. 63. Henry’s No. 15 position is the highest placement among the Baltimore players revealed so far.

The ranking arrives while Baltimore is preparing for its second preseason game. The Ravens have spent the week working against Minnesota, a setting PowerPage covered in its report on the Ravens’ defense during the Vikings joint practices. Henry’s role in preseason action is a coaching decision, but his standing on the list provides a clear measure of the expectations around Baltimore’s offense.

Derrick Henry’s NFL Top 100 ranking does not settle every debate about how the league’s stars should be ordered. It does confirm that, after another 1,500-yard season, his combination of production, longevity and physical presence continues to command league-wide respect.
