Siddiqi<\/a>. &#8220;I really appreciated this year and how it all went down, because it motivated me to be ready to get back when next year comes and work as hard as I can in the offseason to be better. I don&#8217;t have no timeline. I&#8217;m just ready to go.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I feel great, man. I take care of my body, try to work as hard as I can, just so I&#8217;m ready year after year, and it&#8217;s been working. I feel great. Obviously, with age, things can slow down, but I feel great.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Henry, who turned 32 earlier this month, finished this season second in rushing yards (1,595), second in rushing touchdowns (16), third in yards per carry (5.2), first in 20+-yard runs (17), and tied for second in 40+-yard runs (four).<\/p>\n<p>Henry also discussed his relationship with his now-former head coach Harbaugh.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;First class coach, representing the organization in a first class way,&#8221; Henry said. &#8220;Held his players to the highest standard, which was play like a Raven. Utilize that every day you come into that building, in our practice field and leading to game days. Hall of Fame coach. I always appreciated his coaching. I&#8217;m sure he knows that.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#8216;More Motivated Than Ever,&#8217; Henry Isn&#8217;t Thinking About Retirement Coming off another highly productive season, Henry isn&#8217;t thinking&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":537771,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[10],"tags":[834,10013,10014,232778,31153,62,67,132,68],"class_list":["post-537770","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-general","tag-homepage-latest-headlines","tag-inline-news","tag-jesse-minter","tag-late-for-work","tag-sports","tag-united-states","tag-unitedstates","tag-us"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115946214152531240","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/537770","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=537770"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/537770\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/537771"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=537770"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=537770"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=537770"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
