March 12 (UPI) -- All-Pro running back Derrick Henry agreed to sign a two-year deal worth up to $20 million with the Baltimore Ravens. The pact will result in Henry joining forces with reigning NFL MVP Lamar Jackson.

Sources told NFL Network, ESPN and The Athletic about the agreement on Tuesday. Henry's new contract is for $16 million and includes $9 million in guarantees, with an additional $4 million available in incentives.

Henry, 30, led the NFL in carries in four of the last five years, including 2023 and 2022. The four-time Pro Bowl selection totaled an NFL-best 1,540 rushing yards and 16 rushing touchdowns in 2019.

He ran for a league-best 2,027 yards and scored 17 rushing scores in en route to All-Pro and Offensive Player of the Year honors in 2020.

The Titans signed Henry to a four-year, $50 million contract extension in 2022, but later restructured that deal.

Henry's 90 career rushing touchdowns are the most in Titans history. His 9,502 career rushing yards trail only Eddie George on the franchise leaderboard.
