The Ravens didn’t get the best jump out of the gates, but quickly turned things around in Thursday night’s preseason opener.
In the process, they showcased one of their best and deepest position groups.
The Ravens’ running backs starred in a 22-19 victory over the defending NFC champion Carolina Panthers at M&T Bank Stadium, kicking the 2016 season off in style.
Baltimore’s “starters” were hardly the starters. In addition to the big names missing due to injuries, healthy scratches on the offense included quarterback Joe Flacco, right guard Marshal Yanda, wide receiver Kamar Aiken, running back Justin Forsett and tight end Benjamin Watson.
