Ravens signing ex-Titans RB Derrick Henry to two-year, $16 million deal

Backfields are going to look a whole lot different in the NFL next season after a run on free agent quarterbacks and running backs during the league’s two-day legal tampering period. After QBs ruled Day 1 , running backs continued to make strides in free agency Tuesday with four-time Pro Bowler Derrick Henry agreeing to a two-year deal with the Baltimore Ravens, a person with knowledge of the contract told The Associated Press. Henry’s jump from the Tennessee Titans, where he spent his first eight seasons, was among the biggest moves on the eve of the league’s new year, which officially begins at 4 p.m. EDT Wednesday. That’s when free agents can sign contracts they’ve agreed to this week.

Henry’s deal is worth up to $20 million and includes $9 million guaranteed. The two-time NFL rushing champ joins a Baltimore team that annually produces one of the league’s leading ground games.

Running backs have struggled to earn big money in recent years — to the point where Henry organized a group chat among top players at the position last summer. This year’s free agent class included Saquon Barkley, Josh Jacobs and Tony Pollard, all of whom found new homes during Monday’s free agency frenzy . Barkley, Jacobs and Pollard were the three running backs franchise tagged a year ago at $10.1 million, and none signed long-term deals with their teams by the July deadline. All three became free agents this year when their teams declined to tag them again, this time at $12 million. Henry turned 30 in January. The four-time Pro Bowler led the NFL in 2023 with 280 rushing attempts and ranked second to Christian McCaffrey with 1,167 yards rushing. His 12 rushing TDs were fourth in the AFC. Henry leaves Tennessee ranked second in franchise history with 9,502 rushing yards, trailing only Eddie George (10,009).

The Ravens finished with the NFL’s best regular-season record in 2023 before losing to Kansas City in the AFC championship game. Now they add another proven offensive playmaker to work alongside quarterback Lamar Jackson, who is coming off his second MVP season.

Mayor Brandon Scott adds insight on police plans to address rise in traffic violators

Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott is discussing a plan to increase traffic enforcement across Baltimore City. Appearing on WBAL Radio this Wednesday, the mayor said a directive to pay closer attention to traffic violators came from him, the police commissioner, and demands from the community.

“When people are not obeying traffic laws, when they’re speeding, when they’re blowing through stop signs, they will be pulled over,” Scott said. “People are driving like maniacs.”

As far as having enough cops to do it, the mayor said they’re continuing to work on recruiting and retaining officers, but that they must enforce the basic laws.

Scott explained that authorities were stopping violators, but that it wasn’t a big focus, and that things have changed to allow police to shift that focus.

“As we continue to drive down homicides and shootings in the city, they also have a responsibility to be helping keeping people safe in every way,” Scott said.

House passes bill that could ban TikTok

The House passed a bill that could ban TikTok in a 352-65 vote Thursday, putting the spotlight on the Senate on how to handle the controversial legislation that has support from President Biden. The legislation, dubbed the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, was introduced March 5 by Reps. Mike Gallagher, R-Wis., and Raja Krishnamoorthi, D-Ill., of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party.

Two days later, House members on the Energy and Commerce Committee voted unanimously to approve the bill, which refers to TikTok as a threat to national security because it is controlled by a foreign adversary. The bill now heads to the Senate where it faces an uncertain future as senators appear divided about the legislation, and other federal and state-led efforts to ban TikTok have stalled.

President Biden’s 2024 State of the Union address | ONFIRE-TV Special Coverage

ONFIRE-TV.com – President Joe Biden delivered his State of the Union address March 7 as he geared up for a reelection bid that seems likely to be a rematch with his last election opponent. Biden has so far won Democratic primary contests in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina by large margins. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump has continued to dominate the Republican Party contests, even as he balances campaigning with criminal and civil legal cases, including one focused on attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. The president’s biggest annual moment on the national stage is a chance to stress his priorities, make his case for another term, as well as combat headwinds or negative perceptions of his leadership. After Biden spoke, Republicans countered his arguments with a televised response. –
