ANALYSIS: After a season of frequent fluctuations in the workloads of Baltimore’s running backs, the Ravens have remained consistent in their rotation of Gus Edwards and J.K. Dobbins since Dobbins re-emerged from injured reserve in Week 14.
Edwards and Dobbins have combined for 71 attempts since Dobbins resurfaced, while Edwards has now accumulated 31 attempts (10.3 per game), and 220 rushing yards (73.3 per game) during his last three matchups.
That includes the 99 yards that Edwards generated when Baltimore hosted Atlanta in Week 16. He has also eclipsed 55+ yards in three consecutive outings and has also rushed for 65+ during four of his seven matchups this season.
Kenyan Drake has been limited to just one rushing attempt, two receptions, and two total yards since Week 14 while being relegated to healthy scratch status during two of the Ravens’ last three games.
The reliance on Edwards and Dobbins has bolstered Edwards’ viability as an RB3/flex option, and he should garner another favorable workload when the Ravens host Pittsburgh on Sunday.
