Baltimore Ravens' running back J. K. Dobbins injury update

J. K. Dobbins is a running back who plays for the Baltimore Ravens. He was drafted straight out of a known talent factory in the form of Ohio State and has been a live wire ever since, giving the team one of the most dynamic offenses in the league.

The Ohio State alum was an important member of the Ravens' backfield this season until injury halted his progress.

J. K. Dobbins' fantasy outlook

When fit, Dobbins is an asset for fantasy owners. He has remained one of Lamar Jackson's favorite handoff candidates ever since he was drafted into the league.

However, Dobbins is on injured reserve, a status for players with no chance of appearing in a team's next few league fixtures. He had arthroscopic knee surgery and is expected to miss 4-6 weeks.

Gus Edwards, Kenyan Drake, and Justice Hill are all options in the Baltimore Ravens' rushing attack alongside Lamar Jackson with Dobbins out of action.

J. K. Dobbins' return status

J. K. Dobbins' knee injury will take four to six weeks to fully heal. This means that Dobbins will likely be available only around Week 17 or 18 of the 2022 NFL season.

Having him back for the playoffs will boost the Baltimore Ravens' Super Bowl hopes, even though he is the team's third-choice running back at present.
