After suffering the injury he underwent surgery and was in the rehabilitation process. However, he has been medically cleared and regarding the possibility of his and Dalvin Cook’s return to the squad, head coach John Harbaugh had mentioned via Baltimore Ravens, "We"re just going to see how that shakes out. There are some moving pieces to that part, and I"ll just let Eric [DeCosta] handle that. If we bring someone back, if we bring one of those two guys back, I"d be happy to do it. If we"re not able to do it, we"ll find some young guys."
In 2020 as a rookie he rushed for 805 yards and nine touchdowns as per Pro Football Talk. Before the injury happened, Dobbins registered 22 rushing yards and a touchdown.
