The Baltimore Ravens running back depth chart was decimated by injuries before they even played their first game of the 2021 regular season, yet the cupboard is not bare. While the season-ending injuries to J.K. Dobbins, Gus Edwards, and Justice Hill were devastating at the time, the flashes that second-year pro Ty’Son Williams showed throughout the preseason inspired hope that the team’s rushing attack, which is still spearheaded by quarterback Lamar Jackson, won’t drop off as precipitously as many anticipated.
Through the first three games of the season, the Ravens still rank first in rushing offense and Williams has looked like the cream of their running back crop despite receiving sporadic touches.
