Mike Davis Fantasy Overview

Ravens RB Justice Hill (hamstring) is out for Sunday night’s game vs. the Bengals. RBs Mike Davis and Kenyan Drake figure to be active for that one, but neither is on the fantasy radar. RB J.K. Dobbins’ role should continue growing after his snap and carry shares climbed from Week 3 to Week 4.

Ravens RB J.K. Dobbins is expected to make his season debut Sunday against the Patriots, according to multiple reports. We’d hold off on using Dobbins in fantasy football lineups right away, as we have yet to see just how much work he’ll get. But we wouldn’t be surprised to see him quickly work his way to the front of an otherwise weak backfield.

The Ravens have placed RB Gus Edwards (ACL) on the Reserve/PUP list. That means he'll miss at least the 1st 4 games of the regular season. His absence leaves room for J.K. Dobbins to operate as likely the clear backfield leader at least early in the season. We wouldn't be surprised, though, if Baltimore avoids overworking Dobbins off his own ACL tear. Mike Davis currently appears headed for the #2 RB role early in the year, though we'll see how that sorts out over the next couple of weeks.

Ravens RB J.K. Dobbins might not be ready for the regular-season opener, according to Ian Rapaport of NFL Network. He adds that the RB might not get back until "a couple weeks" after that. We'll see about Dobbins' status come August, as he works back from a summer 2021 ACL tear. Teammate Gus Edwards is also coming off a 2021 ACL tear and "seems like he should be on track" for Week 1, according to Rapport. Dobbins fired back on Twitter that he's "damn sure going to be ready for week 1." We'll watch for updates on his knee throughout camp and preseason.
