Dobbins ended his rookie season with a stat line of 805 rushing yards on 134 attempts and nine rushing touchdowns.

Dobbins had a phenomenal rookie season, so most Ravens fans looked forward to his sophomore season. However, disaster struck as he tore his ACL in a preseason game, which saw him miss the 2021 season.

Dobbins returned to action in the 2022 preseason. However, he only made a few appearances before he suffered another knee injury. He missed most of the season, only returning to action on December 10, 2022.
