What It Means:

Dobbins is recovering from an ACL tear that happened in August of last year. “He looked good,” Harbaugh praised. “He’s kind of back on track, and I thought he looked a little better than he did before. So, he continues to improve, and we’ll see where it goes.” The Ravens activated Dobbins from the PUP list on August 8 and there is optimism that they will have him available for Week 1 against the New York Jets. Gus Edwards -- who also tore his ACL before the 2021 campaign started -- isn't expected to be ready for the Ravens' opener, so Mike Davis could wind up being the primary back to start the season.

numberFire's models expect Dobbins to be ready for Week 1 and he is currently the RB24 in our preseason fantasy rankings. Our projections have him at 194.7 carries for 894.4 yards, and 36.6 receptions (49.7 targets) for 273.7 yards, with 8.12 touchdowns.
