The Ravens suffered an absolutely brutal blow when it was reported that promising young running back Kenneth Dixon would miss the entire 2017 season with a meniscus tear. Dixon was already slated to miss the first four games of the 2017 season due to a suspension. However, now the Ravens will not just have to replace four games for Dixon’s production, but instead 16. That could very well be about 70-100 carries that need to be taken. How will the Ravens running game look with Kenneth Dixon out for the year?
Chronologically, the first thing Dixon’s injury will influence is who makes the 53-man roster at the start of the season.
