This was the former All-Pro running back's third lost fumble in as many games — a troubling trend for the Ravens. While he did score earlier on a 28-yard touchdown run, the turnover ultimately overshadowed his overall performance. His emotional sideline outburst reflected the mounting pressure as he looks to find consistency in his second season in Baltimore.
Now sitting at 1-2, the Ravens face major questions heading into Week 4. With a tough road matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs on deck, Henry's ball security — and his composure — will be under the spotlight.
