Watch: RB Derrick Henry frustrated after third fumble in three weeks

Ball security is priority No. 1 for running backs. Derrick Henry’s had issues securing the football through the first three weeks of the season.

The Baltimore Ravens running back had the ball stripped loose by Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson on first-and-10 with a little over eight minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. Lions cornerback D.J. Reed was able to recover the loose football and return it three yards to Baltimore’s 16-yard line.

The Lions were able hit a field goal a few plays later to extend their lead to 31-24. But while Detroit took over possession of the football, Henry was visibly frustrated on the sideline after his turnover.

Henry’s fumbled in each of the first three games of the regular season. He had a critical fourth-quarter fumble in Week 1 that helped the Buffalo Bills rally to win. He lost the football in Week 2 versus the Cleveland Browns and his fumble during the fourth quarter against Detroit led to a field goal. It’s the first time in Henry’s career he’s had multiple fourth quarter fumbles in the same season.
