OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- The Baltimore Ravens reached a two-year, $10 million extension with running back Gus Edwards, his agent Drew Rosenhaus told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday.
The Ravens now have one of the NFL's best backfield tandems -- J.K. Dobbins and Edwards -- signed through the 2023 season. Baltimore has led the league in rushing in each of the past two seasons.
Edwards, 26, is among the NFL's top backups and is one of the most underrated players in the league. After going undrafted out of Rutgers in 2018, he is one of two players in NFL history to produce at least 700 yards rushing and average 5-plus yards per carry in the first three seasons of a career, according to research by the Elias Sports Bureau.
