Breshad Perriman has received season-saving news.
NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Tuesday that Perriman does not have a torn ACL in his left knee as originally feared and will be ready for the 2016 season. The Baltimore Ravens wide receiver received a stem cell injection from noted orthopedist James Andrews, according to a source informed of his situation.
Perriman, a 2014 first-round pick who missed all of his rookie season with a right knee injury, had his latest setback on the final day of OTAs. He suffered a partial tear of the ACL, but Andrews deemed it was not significant enough to warrant a full reconstruction of the knee.
