Ravens RB J.K. Dobbins suffered a torn Achilles in Sunday’s Week 1 win over the Texans and is done for the season.
Ravens head coach John Harbaugh confirmed the worst shortly after the team’s 25-9 win over the Texans. Dobbins landed awkwardly on a tackle in the third quarter and immediately worked his way to the sideline with trainers. This marks the second severe injury for Dobbins, whose entire 2021 season was lost to a torn ACL just days before the start of the season. Currently in the final year of his rookie contract, Dobbins will likely look to sign some kind of prove-it deal next offseason as he now recovers from another devastating injury. Both Justice Hill and Gus Edwards become waiver wire priorities with Dobbins now sidelined. Dobbins totaled 37 yards and one touchdown in Sunday’s win over the Texans.

Maybe Fournette will get a look too.Kareem Hunt?
He’s more done than DobbinsMaybe Fournette will get a look too.Kareem Hunt?
No, it’s brutal both ways.This is brutal for him, fantasy stuff aside.
NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports J.K. Dobbins will undergo surgery on Friday to repair a torn Achilles suffered in Week 1’s win over the Texans.
Dobbins is reportedly eyeing a six-month recovery, similar to what Cam Akers saw after tearing his Achilles in 2021. Akers returned late that season to participate in the Rams’ Super Bowl run, but his injury also came in mid-July, while Dobbins’ came much later. A return after six months would have Dobbins back on the field by February, at best. He’s still expected to miss the remainder of this season.
The achilles tear on the heels (no pun intended) of a significant knee (ACL+) injury is a significant blow to JK's value. Maybe worth a dart throw... maybe time to find another dart.Bumping this for thoughts on Dobbins’ dynasty value.
Looking across the landscape at guys to grab for next season and thought about Dobbins after the Mitchell ACL injury.
The Ravens could very well go in a different direction at RB, as Dobbins and Gus will be UFAs, Mitchell may not be ready well into 2024, and can’t see them rolling with Justice Hill.
Dobbins obviously has to rehab from the Achilles tear, but seems like this type of injury isn’t as devastating long term as it used to be (e.g., Foreman, Akers, Rodgers) and maybe they sign him to a cheap one year prove it deal. Worth a dart throw I think.

J.K. Dobbins posted a video of him running five and a half months after suffering a torn Achilles.
Dobbins has been bit hard by the injury bug as of late, suffering a torn ACL that forced him to miss all of 2021, and a torn Achilles that limited him to just one game in 2023. One of the league’s most efficient runners when healthy, Dobbins has rushed for 234-1347-12 in 24 career games and has averaged a solid 5.8 YPC. The former second-round pick will hope to secure another starting opportunity via free agency, as it seems unlikely the Ravens will bring him back at this point.
He's getting to the point where he will trot out on to the field with a walker.I cannot quit this guy in dynasty, always loved his talent. I hope he signs a prove it deal in MIN or somewhere he will have a shot at being in a committee. Chances of him returning to his peak self and staying healthy are probably not great, but he is still young enough to make it happen.
I understand it is more of a me problem. He is a long shot for sure.He's getting to the point where he will trot out on to the field with a walker.I cannot quit this guy in dynasty, always loved his talent.

I’m with you. Roster him in a Keep 13 league so he’s right on the edge of the bench depending on where he ends up and how he’s recovering. Thankfully in that league we don’t do roster cut downs til August.I cannot quit this guy in dynasty, always loved his talent.

Harbaugh said this morning he's not ruled out resigning Dobbins(or Dalvin) but might have just been coach speak.Anyone going to sign Dobbins? I heard rumors the Cowboys were interested.
Came here to post that same thing. I think Harbaugh will give him a tumble if the health is there.Harbaugh said this morning he's not ruled out resigning Dobbins(or Dalvin) but might have just been coach speak.Anyone going to sign Dobbins? I heard rumors the Cowboys were interested.
Could see him not signing until after the draft, maybe not even until we approach camp. Maybe he'd rather heal more and show teams he's healthier.
I got him on one team, have plans to cut him next week. Put a message out he was available and got two offers. A 6th and a 7th from one team and a 5th from another. I'm just going to cut him instead.
When.Chiefs? .. If they don’t resign CEH
CEH is busy getting a headset that fits...At McDonalds.When.Chiefs? .. If they don’t resign CEH
There’s no chance CEH is back, IMO.
NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports RB J.K. Dobbins has been “cleared for football activities.”
Pelissero reports that Dr. Neal ElAttrache wrote a letter to teams saying Dobbins has been cleared and looks “outstanding”. Currently a free agent, Dobbins tore his Achilles in Week 1 of the 2023 season. He was initially drafted by the Ravens in the second round of the 2020 draft, but has appeared in just 24 games over four seasons. Dobbins also suffered a torn ACL to miss his entire second season. The ACL/Achilles tear history will make getting a lead role difficult for Dobbins, but when healthy, he has averaged 5.8 yards per carry. Dobbins is expected to take visits soon and could make a comeback as a complementary option in a backfield for 2024.
Seems like he'd be a good cheap fit in Dallas.
Yeah, Chargers make sense due to the Roman connection if he's still interested.Seems like he'd be a good cheap fit in Dallas.
Actually the two LA teams make the most sense to me.
The Rams because that surgeon also did the achilles surgeries for TreDavious White, who they just signed yesterday as well as Akers. They'd probably put more stock in his opinion then most and he could compete with Rivers/Evans/Freeman to be the backup.
Chargers due to obvious connection with Ravens, as well as need.
He'll get signed, I'm not totally convinced he'll actually earn any playing time for anyone next year.
That "if healthy" part is obviously the problem, but I agree.Chargers or Cowboys would be a huge opportunity if healthy.
Ugh same here. Was offered Reek in a trade that was basically for him and a 2nd, didn't pull the trigger bc I'm an idiot, his rookie year.I drafted JKDobbins as a rookie and I've been holding onto him. Should I drop him so that he can sign with a team and finally be healthy and break out?
As I've held him in an Empire league, yes please.I drafted JKDobbins as a rookie and I've been holding onto him. Should I drop him so that he can sign with a team and finally be healthy and break out?

Nice work, @TonycarpenterLooks like the Chargers are signing him.
