Ray Rice showing 'good burst' in practice

Baltimore Ravens

Jun 10, 2014 · 5:27 PM EDT

Ravens RB Ray Rice had an impressive day on the field. He made a one-handed snag at one point, and had several plays where he showed a good burst out of the backfield. He took a pitch during an 11-on-11 drill and beat everybody to the edge to get upfield. He seems to have regained the speed that was lacking because of a hip injury last season.

Fantasy Impact:

At just 26 years old, it was surprising to see Rice's production fall off the way it did, but he was dealing with hip and quad injuries throughout the season. He was also coming off of a Super Bowl run the previous year, which likely wore him down. GM Ozzie Newsome said he expects Rice to return to Pro Bowl form, but HC John Harbaugh said after the season that the team could take more of a committee approach at running back, which would limit Rice's upside. Rice is facing suspension for his offseason incident in Atlantic City. Stay tuned.

Robert Weintraub on how Ray Rice may struggle in 2014: "Ray Rice will likely be suspended by the NFL for his off-the-field actions, and upon return will find himself struggling for playing time. Bernard Pierce will finally spend more hours in the huddle than in the X-ray facility, and when healthy, he is choice. Justin Forsett is on hand to catch Rice's passes out of the backfield, and the small but blazing scatback will provide the jolt Rice was unable to muster last season. Rookie Lorenzo Taliaferro will be the backfield punishment (and not just of taxi cabs), while perhaps singing an aria or two. Rice's poor play raised plenty of eyebrows last year, and his rocky offseason has only made his situation less tenable. His leverage with the team has been that the Ravens needed him. In 2014, that won't be the case."

The Ravens actually have their most depth at running back since John Harbaugh took over as coach in 2008. There are four legitimate runners on this roster with Ray Rice, Bernard Pierce, Lorenzo Taliaferro and Justin Forsett. Pierce should be motivated to show he's more like the back in 2012 than last year. He just needs to stay healthy. Taliaferro is a rookie fourth-round pick who is the big back that the Ravens have been seeking for the past few years. He made headlines this past two week after being arrested for a couple of misdemeanors, which hasn't significantly changed their high expectations of him. And Forsett is a fast, elusive third-down type of a back. If Rice is suspended, the Ravens will go with Pierce. If Pierce isn't healthy, the Ravens will decide between Taliaferro and Forsett.

Fantasy Impact:

Pierce is nursing a shoulder injury but should be ready for camp. He will play a key role if Rice is suspended.

Ravens HC Jim Harbaugh had positive news regarding running back Bernard Pierce.

Baltimore expected Pierce to be sidelined until at least the beginning of training camp after undergoing shoulder surgery in January, but Pierce went through light work at practice Thursday.

“[He] may be a little bit ahead of schedule maybe,” Harbaugh said.

Fantasy Impact:

Pierce could have a large role early in the season if Ray Rice is suspended, which is expected.
