Derrick Henry rushes for 4 TD’s, 216 yards as Ravens outslug Packers

Derrick Henry rushed for season highs of 216 yards and four touchdowns and the Baltimore Ravens remained alive in the AFC North with a 41-24 victory over the host Green Bay Packers on Saturday night.

Henry set an NFL record with his seventh career 200-yard game, breaking a tie with O.J. Simpson and Adrian Peterson. Henry, who carried the ball a career-high 36 times, also moved into fourth place on the all-time rushing touchdowns list with 122. He passed Marcus Allen (120).

The Ravens (8-8) play at Pittsburgh (9-6) in Week 18 and the contest will be for the AFC North title if the Steelers lose to the host Cleveland Browns on Sunday.

Green Bay (9-6-1) has lost three straight games and was eliminated from the NFC North chase as the Chicago Bears clinched the division.

Tyler Huntley completed 16 of 20 passes for 107 yards and one touchdown and rushed for 60 yards on eight carries for Baltimore. He started in place of Lamar Jackson (back), who sat out after being injured in last weekend's loss to the New England Patriots.

Malik Willis completed 18 of 21 passes for 288 yards and one touchdown and rushed for 60 yards and two scores on nine attempts for Green Bay. Willis departed with a shoulder injury midway through the fourth quarter and didn't return.

Willis started in place of Jordan Love (concussion), who sat out after being hurt in last week's overtime loss against the Bears.

Green Bay defensive tackle Jordon Riley (Achilles) and cornerback Kamal Hadden (ankle) were both carted off the field.

The Packers trailed by 13 at halftime before getting back into the game on a 24-yard field goal by Brandon McManus and Willis' 11-yard run.

The Ravens responded with Huntley's 10-yard touchdown pass to Zay Flowers with 10:10 remaining.

Willis reinjured his passing shoulder while making a throw -- he wasn't hit by anybody -- and requested play be stopped with 7:53 left.
