Derrick Henry loves dogs.

He got to meet with a celebrity dog this week when one showed up to training camp.

Duke the Golden Retriever and it’s owner, Zarah, were recently invited to Ravens’ training camp.

Duke has been a regular fixture on social media since he was a puppy, with clips regularly posted to TikTok under the handle @dukethatgolden.

“We started posting content of Duke when he was 8 weeks old, and the internet has loved him,” Zarah Kelleher said in 2023.

TikTok is where followers were first introduced to Duke’s unique bedtime routine.

 

Now, TikTok’s account has more than 485,000 followers.

At training camp over the weekend, Duke got a chance meeting with star running back Derrick Henry.

Derrick Henry’s highly productive first season with the Baltimore Ravens led to a lucrative contract.

In May, Henry agreed to a two-year, $30 million extension with the Ravens that includes $25 million fully guaranteed. It is the richest deal ever given to an NFL running back older than 30.

Henry’s rushing total last season was the 11th highest in NFL history. He fell 79 yards shy of becoming the NFL’s first two-time 2,000-yard rusher.

Brittney Griner Finally Breaks Her Silence Over Alleged Caitlin Clark Comments That The WNBA Refused To Investigate

WNBA star Brittney Griner was at the center of a new debate over what she allegedly said in a game against basketball phenom Caitlin Clark.

The Atlanta Dream center found herself at the center of social media controversy last month when some fans thought she disparaged Indiana Fever star guard Caitlin Clark upon fouling out.

The game’s broadcast focused on an upset Griner saying something as she returned to the Dream bench after fouling out of the game. While there’s no audio of this moment, some who tried to read Griner’s lips thought she called Clark a “trash f–king white girl.”

However, there’s no proof of Griner saying those actual words since others thought she stated something else.

It took weeks for someone to finally get a quote from her, and she provided much of nothing.

Brittney Griner was asked about this moment before her team’s June 15 game against the Washington Mystics and said, “I remember fouling out, being mad. I remember fouling out on, I believe it was [Natasha] Howard driving to the basket. They said I put my hand in.”

Moments before the conclusion of the Indiana Fever’s 81-76 victory over the Dream at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta weeks ago, cameras seemingly caught Atlanta Dream star center Brittney Griner labeling Caitlin Clark “trash” before calling her a “f***ing white girl” in frustration over a foul on Natasha Howard.

The clip of Griner speaking on the bench, lacking context, spread on social media and went viral.

Griner, who won a gold medal for Team USA at the Summer Olympics in Paris in 2024, essentially got aw@y with whatever came out of her mouth because the league basically ignored the controversy.

This incident is not the only time Griner vocalized her frustrations this season. Following another game, she stormed off mid-interview, yelling at the referees to “be f—ing better.
