Steelers’ 2025 Defense Better Prepared For Derrick Henry Than In 2024, Says Mike Tomlin

The Pittsburgh Steelers need to beat the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday night to get into the playoffs. To do so, they’ve got to go through a familiar foe in Derrick Henry. He’s a player the Steelers’ defense has struggled mightily with in the recent matchups between the two sides.

In last year’s Wild Card round, Henry tore the Steelers’ defense apart to the tune of 186 rushing yards and two scores. Henry wasn’t quite as efficient in the first meeting between the two sides this year back in Week 14, but did still run for 94 yards.
