For one drive, running back Danny Woodhead showed exactly why the Ravens were so excited when they signed him last March. On the Ravens’ first offensive possession of the season against the Cincinnati Bengals, Woodhead had one carry for four yards and three catches for 33 yards. However, the drive ended with Woodhead leaving the field on a cart with a significant hamstring injury.
Woodhead missed eight games and when he returned, he never made the offensive impact the Ravens envisioned. They released the pass-catching running back Tuesday less than a year after signing him to a three-year, $8.
