Report: Ravens have found J.K. Dobbins’ replacement

The Ravens received some really unfortunate news at the beginning of the season. J.K. Dobbins, their starting running back, wouldn’t be able to play for the rest of the year, bringing a lot of problems for Baltimore.

With Keaton Mitchell on injury reserve and Justice Hill questionable, the Ravens have signed Kenyan Drake to their practice squad. He’s returning to Baltimore, as he played last year with them and was released during this offseason.

Even though he has only been signed to the practice squad, it is likely that he will become a part of the team soon, possibly as RB1. In 2022, Drake played in 12 games with the Ravens, accumulating 109 carries for 482 rushing yards and scoring only 4 touchdowns.
