Fans slam EA for giving Derrick Henry a low rating in Madden 24 -“Holy F**K this sucks”
[ad_1]
One of, if not the scariest ball carriers in the NFL, is Tennessee Titans RB Derrick Henry. At 6-foot-3 and 247 pounds, Henry is an explosive running back for his size as he ran a 4.54 forty-yard dash time in the harvest.
He is one of eight players who appeared in NFL history to be part of the 2,000-yard rushing club as he ran for 2,027 yards in 2020. The player has led the league in rushing yards twice in his career and has one of the best-signing heavy arms in NFL history.
Madden 24 released its NFL All Backs Rankings today and ranks Henry 94th, the fourth highest for all running backs,

Fans were quick to take to Twitter to criticize EA Sports for giving Henry a lower rating than he deserves.
Fans were outraged by Madden’s rating of Henry. Some still think he’s the best RB in the league while others think he wasn’t respected because he had the fourth highest rating for RBs in the game.
Here’s how fans reacted:
EAMaddenNFL Disrespect Mad Henry
EAMaddenNFL Derrick Henry’s Funny 4. but you are
@EAMaddenNFL So Josh Jacobs is better than Derrick Henry?????
EAMaddenNFL Wow until EA undervalues the running back position especially by putting Henry at 94
@EAMaddenNFL I thought Henry was 99? wtf happened?
EAMaddenNFL So Derek, Henry got hit He bumped it to 94 but Aaron Donald stayed at 99. Make sense. Nick Bosa should have got 99. It’s okay if he does as well as we hope during the season, you guys give it to him.
EAMaddenNFL Josh Jacobs and Chubb on Henry??? 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Derrick Henry is ranked as the fifth best RB by NFL executives
Not only did Madden give Henry a low rating, but so did NFL managers. According to a poll conducted by NFL executives, Henry is ranked the fifth-best runner entering the 2023 season.
He finished last season with the most rushing attempts (349) and finished second with the most (1,538) while hitting 13 touchdowns on the ground.
“There’s a slight dip, but it’s still an anomaly,” said the NFL’s director of personnel. “You just don’t know how long that will last. If anyone could do it, it would be him.”

The Titans had a lot of problems on their offensive line last season and didn’t have many offensive playmakers aside from Henry. Even with teams focusing on him, he still has another career season ahead.
Do you think Derrick Henry rated too low on Madden 24?
