OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Running back Alex Collins' disappointing season is officially over.
The Baltimore Ravens placed Collins on injured reserve Saturday and activated running back Kenneth Dixon, who had been designated to return.
Collins has been dealing with a foot injury and was bumped from the starting role by Gus Edwards, who became the first Baltimore rookie to rush for more than 100 yards in consecutive games since Jamal Lewis did it in 2000.
One of the biggest surprises for the Ravens last season, Collins, who will be a restricted free agent after the season, didn't live up to expectations behind a banged up offensive line.
