RB Justin Forsett – Broken Arm – Level of concern: Low

Forsett was also injured in the game against the Rams in November of 2015. He broke two bones in his arm in a gruesome scene, as Rams’ defensive tackle Aaron Donald body slammed him to the turf. Forsett had surgery the next day and was done for the season.

Broken arms usually take between six to eight weeks to recover and there shouldn’t be any lingering effects from the injury on Forsett. He was back at OTA’s and Mandatory Minicamp and looked like his old self, so he should be fine for the 2016 season.

The competition is as fierce as ever for Forsett however, and his spot on the roster is not guaranteed. While most expect Forsett to be the starter, Buck Allen and rookie Kenneth Dixon are no slouches, and will be battling for the starting role. Either way, it’s a good problem to have, as the Ravens have plenty of quality running backs.
