Ravens running back Justin Forsett became a late bloomer in NFL circles two years ago, when he rushed for 1,266 yards during his first season in Baltimore. Now approaching 31 and coming back from a broken arm that shortened his 2015 campaign, Forsett is ready to build on what he did in 2014.
Appearing Wednesday on PFT Live on NBC Sports Radio and NBCSN, Forsett said he’s 100 percent again. He also said that he’s feeling great and fresh because, for most of his early years, he didn’t have the same wear and tear that other running backs experience. He also has noticed something positive about being an experience (i.e., older) player in the NFL.
The Ravens took a bit of a hit at the position with Kenneth Dixon missing the next couple of weeks. Some who follow the team feel Dixon will eventually claim the RB1 spot but for now it looks to be Forsett again. Javorius Allen will also be in the mix as will Terrance West.
