Thanksgiving Day had three games take place. The Green Bay Packers defeated the Detroit Lions, 31-24, in the first game.

Then, the Dallas Cowboys beat the Kansas City Chiefs, 31-28, and the final one was the Cincinnati Bengals defeating the Baltimore Ravens, 32-14.

Joe Burrow returned for the Bengals for the first time since suffering an injury in Week 2. The Bengals quarterback threw for 261 yards with a pair of touchdowns in the blowout win over the AFC North rivals.

Lamar Jackson struggled for Baltimore, going just 17-of-32 for 246 yards with no scores and an interception.

Ravens running back Derrick Henry rushed for 60 yards and a score on 10 carries and added a 44-yard reception in the lopsided defeat.

The Ravens RB scored the first touchdown of the game on a 28-yard rush with just under seven minutes left in the first quarter.

In turn, he made a special piece of NFL history.

"Derrick Henry becomes the 4th player in NFL history with 10+ scrimmage TDs in at least 8 consecutive seasons," the NFL Plus account posted.

While it has been a disappointing year for the Ravens, Henry has been a steady force on the offense.

Through 12 games, he has 931 yards with 10 rushing touchdowns. This now marks the eighth consecutive season where he has scored double-digit touchdowns, dating back to the 2018 season when he was with the Tennessee Titans.

Henry also joins LaDainian Tomlinson as the only players with 10+ rushing scores in eight straight seasons.

King Henry just scored his 116th career touchdown.

Unfortunately for Baltimore, the record now drops to 6-6, which has them on the outside looking in at the AFC playoff picture and tied with the Chiefs.

There is still plenty of time for things to change, and the Ravens will face the Pittsburgh Steelers at home in a pivotal AFC North showdown on Dec. 7.
