Optimism Surrounding Keaton Mitchell's Status For Thursday Night
4 hours agoNFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports that there is optimism that Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell (knee) will be active for Thursday night against the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals to kick off Week 10 action. Head coach John Harbaugh said earlier this week there was a chance Mitchell would be activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list to make his 2024 debut on Thursday, and it looks like it's going to happen after he put in three full practices from Monday through Wednesday. The explosive second-year back won't be recommended for starting fantasy lineups in his first game back, but don't forget that he averaged 8.4 yards per carry and also 10.3 yards per reception in his first eight games in 2023 before tearing his ACL. Mitchell's impending return is bad news for Justice Hill, but Derrick Henry will remain Baltimore's unquestioned lead back.
