Dennis Pitta’s worst football nightmare has come true. He has injured his hip again.
“In unfortunate news, Dennis Pitta re-injured his hip at today’s OTA session, and is undergoing tests to determine the severity," General Manager Ozzie Newsome said. "This is incredibly disappointing, obviously for Dennis, and for the Ravens."
Just like last time, it happened without contact. Pitta stretched to make a catch, just like he’s done a million times. He fell to the turf and tried to get up, but couldn’t put weight on his leg.
It’s devastating news for the Ravens and Pitta, as it’s his third major hip injury in four years – just when it looked like it was finally behind him and his career was back on track.
