The Baltimore Ravens are in serious trouble on the quarterback front, and this Derrick Henry stat shows exactly how bad the situation is.
The Baltimore Ravens suffered a 36-10 loss at the hands of the Buffalo Bills, but this is far from their biggest concern at the moment. The team sits at the bottom of the AFC North following their 4-4 start to the season, but things might be getting a whole lot worse for the franchise.

Quarterback Tyler Huntley suffered a toe injury, and could also be placed on injured reserve. This comes after reports that Lamar Jackson is also headed to the IR, after suffering a right thumb injury that requires surgery. Undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano is in line to start against the Jaguars on the weekend.
Derrick Henry has thrown more NFL passing touchdowns than any quarterback options the Baltimore Ravens have
Baltimore has since signed Kedon Slovis from the Green Bay Packers' practice squad and brought back Austin Reed, but Fagnano is expected to be the starter this weekend. The young QB is also not without his own issues, he has got ankle troubles which might cause some problems.
The bigger concern here is actually highlighted by one statistic, and it involves the man who will likely be expected to carry the offense, Derrick Henry.
"Derrick Henry has more career pass TD (4) than the Ravens current 3 QB options for Thursday: Joe Fagnano, Austin Reed, Kedon Slovis (0)," CBS writer Doug Clawson pointed out in a social media post.

Injury problems have been a large reason for the team's lack of success during the Lamar Jackson era, but this is a particularly bad situation. For the likes of Fagnano, Slovis, and Reed, it could present as an opportunity. However, it will most likely end up being nothing more than another disappointing season for the Ravens.
