OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- By teaming up running back Derrick Henry with quarterback Lamar Jackson, the Baltimore Ravens have one of the most special tandems in NFL history.
This marks the fifth set of teammates to play together after one previously won multiple NFL Most Valuable Player awards and the other was previously named Offensive Player of the Year, according to research by the Elias Sports Bureau. The last time this happened was 2003, when the St. Louis Rams had Kurt Warner and Marshall Faulk.
It feels like a perfect fit with the reigning MVP in Jackson and the 2020 Offensive Player of the Year in Henry, except for one difference in their careers: where they line up.
