Baltimore Ravens’ running back J.K. Dobbins has been activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list (PUP) and will join the Ravens for practice on Monday. Dobbins tore his ACL 345 days ago in the Ravens’ preseason finale against the Washington Football Team (now Commanders) after catching a screen pass in the first quarter.
The Ravens lost their top three running backs in a matter of weeks leading up to Week 1 of the 2021 regular season, starting with Dobbins, then Gus Edwards and Justice Hill. Dobbins will have 34 days to get into playing shape against the New York Jets in Week 1. The third-year back led all NFL running backs in yards per carry (6.0) as a rookie in 2020. He also finished second in percentage of rushes that went for 15+ yards, fourth in missed tackles forced % and first in EPA/attempt.
