Ravens' Keaton Mitchell: Won't return for Week 9
Keaton Mitchell (knee) wasn't activated from the PUP list ahead of Sunday's matchup versus Denver, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.Mitchell continues to make progress in his recovery from last December's torn ACL, and he was able to log a trio of full practices this week. Per Zrebiec, Baltimore is opting to give Mitchell more practice time before activating him, and he still has 11 days left on his 21-day practice window before the team has to make a decision on him, according to Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com. The Baltimore Ravens have a quick turnaround after Sunday's contest with a Thursday matchup against Cincinnati in Week 10, and Mitchell isn't guaranteed to be cleared for that contest.

Ravens' Keaton Mitchell: Full practice participant Wednesday
Keaton Mitchell (knee) was listed as a full practice participant on Wednesday's injury report.Keaton began the regular season on the reserve/PUP list while in the final stages of his recovery from a torn ACL in his left knee that he sustained in Week 15 of the 2023 campaign. His 21-day practice window opened Oct. 23, and while he was a limited participant all of last week, he was able to practice without restrictions Wednesday. If he's able to log full practices over the next two days, there's a chance he could be activated off IR and make his 2024 regular-season debut against the Broncos on Sunday. If he does return, Mitchell would serve as the Baltimore Ravens' No. 3 running back behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill.

Ravens' Keaton Mitchell: Practice window opened Wednesday
The Baltimore Ravens designated Keaton Mitchell (knee) for return from injured reserve Wednesday, Ryan Mink of the team's official site reports.Mitchell -- who has been recovering from an ACL tear suffered last December -- took part in his practice of the 2024 season Wednesday, participating in a limited fashion. Head coach John Harbaugh has already ruled out Mitchell for Sunday's game against the Browns, but Wednesday's transaction officially opens the running back's 21-day evaluation window. Assuming Mitchell is eventually added back to the 53-man roster before the 21-day window closes, it's unclear what his role will be with Derrick Henry and Justice Hill both performing exceptionally as the one-two punch out of Baltimore's backfield. Unless Henry and/or Hill succumb to an injury, Mitchell could struggle to find enough snaps to deliver fantasy utility.

Ravens' Keaton Mitchell: Won't play Week 8
Head coach John Harbaugh said Wednesday that Keaton Mitchell (knee) won't play Sunday against the Browns, Jonas Shaffer of the Baltimore Banner reports.Harbaugh added that Mitchell is set to go full speed in practice Thursday, after which point the team will have a better indication of a potential timetable for the second-year running back's return from a torn ACL suffered last December. The Baltimore Ravens are hoping Mitchell will come back prior to the expiration of his 21-day window to return from the PUP list, which will open when he officially starts practicing.

Ravens' Keaton Mitchell: Set to resume practicing
Keaton Mitchell (knee) is in line to return to practice this week, Ryan Mink of the Baltimore Ravens' official site reports.Mitchell, who suffered an ACL tear last December, is on the PUP list, but once he's back at practice, the running back's 21-day window for reinstatement to the 53-man roster will open. Per Mink, Mitchell will likely need a multi-week ramp-up period before returning to game action, but once the 22-year-old is deemed ready, he'll provide the Ravens with backfield depth behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill.

Ravens' Keaton Mitchell: Not close to returning
Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Wednesday that Keaton Mitchell (knee) is "right on schedule" but "isn't close enough yet to talk about," Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.In other words, the Ravens never expected Mitchell to contribute in the first half of the season, hoping instead to get him back later in the campaign. He suffered an ACL tear Week 15 last season and apparently will remain on the PUP list for at least a few more weeks. Harbaugh said that the team expects Mitchell to play at some point in 2024.

Ravens' Keaton Mitchell: Out first four games, at least
The Baltimore Ravens placed Keaton Mitchell (knee) on the reserve/PUP list Tuesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.Mitchell is working his way back from a torn left ACL, and while his placement on the reserve/PUP list only officially rules him out for the first four games of the season, the second-year pro may not be to ready to retake the field until November. In any case, Derrick Henry is positioned to work as the clear No. 1 backfield option for Baltimore, while Justice Hill remains in town to handle pass-catching work. Rookie fifth-round pick Rasheen Ali (concussion) could work as the No. 3 man as long as Mitchell remains sidelined.

Ravens' Keaton Mitchell: Staying on PUP list
Keaton Mitchell (knee) will remain on the PUP list to start the regular season, ruling him out for at least four games, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.It's not surprising given the lack of updates on Mitchell's progress since he was placed on the PUP list at the start of training camp. He suffered an ACL tear in Week 15 of last season, ending an impressive run of performances in which he'd emerged as Baltimore's best backfield threat despite being an undrafted rookie. The team has since signed Derrick Henry and still has Justice Hill for passing downs, but Mitchell's speed could make him useful in a change-of-pace role at some point Week 5 or later this year.

Ravens' Keaton Mitchell: Starting camp on PUP list
The Baltimore Ravens placed Keaton Mitchell (knee) on the PUP list Monday, Ryan Mink of the team's official site reports.Mitchell, who is working his way back from a left ACL tear suffered last December, will unsurprisingly have to begin training camp on the PUP list. He can be moved to the active roster at any time during training camp and the preseason, once he's ready to practice, but if he remains sidelined by the time Week 1 rolls around, Mitchell will need to be moved to the reserve/PUP list and thus miss a minimum of four games to start the season. The undersized speedster is competing for a role behind Derrick Henry out of the backfield.

Ravens' Keaton Mitchell: Won't be ready for training camp
Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Wednesday that Keaton Mitchell (knee) won't be ready for the start of training camp but is "on schedule" in his recovery from an ACL tear sustained Week 15 last season, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Harbaugh said Mitchell isn't expected to be ready until "sometime during the season." That's unsurprising given the timing of Mitchell's injury, but fantasy managers should brace for the eventuality that the second-year back isn't available Week 1, or at least not at full strength. Derrick Henry will work as Baltimore's clear No. 1 backfield option, but given that he's 30 years old, the team could want to keep him from the sort of league-leading workload he's handled in the past. If Henry ends up headlining a committee rather than serving as a true workhorse, more opportunities could be available to Mitchell, once healthy. At least to begin the regular season, Justice Hill and rookie fifth-round pick Rasheen Ali (biceps) may serve as the primary complementary options to Henry.
