Baltimore Ravens running back, J.K. Dobbins recently made his comeback and has finally returned to the practice session. 

Dobbins shared his thoughts on his comeback saying, "I feel amazing," 

“I feel pretty dang good. I"m just gonna leave it at that because I feel so good."

Dobbins was absent during the team’s mandatory minicamp and he was not there in their first 14 training camp sessions. Now he has been activated from the physically unable to perform list. 

Due to his injury, Dobbins had to stay back. However, there were some underlying contractual issues, which were also one of the two reasons for his absence.

John Harbaugh, Baltimore Ravens, head coach also hinted at this at the beginning of the camp. 

Regarding his return on Wednesday, Dobbins said to reporters through NFL, "That"s a tough question,"

“I was just, you know, being cautious. My teammates need me, so I want to be there for my teammates. That"s all it was. You know, my teammates understood what was going on. It"s all good now, I"m out here."

The running back has expressed that he physically feels good and he has been with the team attending meetings.

Meanwhile, Dobbins is in his last year of the rookie contract. 

More about his contract is not revealed, yet Dobbins however has expressed that he wants to stay with the Ravens throughout his entire NFL career. 

Dobbins revealed, "Mr. Eric [DeCosta], he"s the best GM — the best GM in the game,"

 “He"ll get it worked out. Whatever happens, happens. He"s gonna get it worked out. We have good conversations".

Further adding he stated, “And I have much respect for Mr. Eric, and Mr. Harbaugh, Coach Harbaugh, everyone, [Ravens owner] Mr. Steve [Bisciotti]. It is what it is. In the time being, I"m going to go out there and play and do go. Hopefully, I"m playing for the Ravens for the rest of my life, in my football career."

Dobbins concluded his rookie season with 805 rushing yards and nine touchdowns.
