Former Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins has made the cross country move to the LA Chargers and is fired up to produce the goods.
Dobbins, a 2020 second round pick out of Ohio, had had a torrid past two years with long term injuries but he claims he is ready for action after snapping his Achilles tendon in week 1 against the Texans.
“I"m 100 percent now," Dobbins said Monday.
“It was like a walk in the park, it was like a sprained ankle. It was very easy, because I had the knee [injury] — the knee was pretty hard. The Achilles was, I would say, easy, just because that"s my mentality. It was pretty easy to me. I"ve had these injuries.
Dobbins missed the majority of the 2022 season with a serious knee injury, while 2021 was injury hampered after tearing his ACL in the Ravens last regular season game.
“It"s been a storm the past two years, having great games, and then, the next thing you know, hurt. Got the injury-prone [label] out there, but I think that the storm is over with. I think that I"m going to take off now. There will be no setbacks. The injury-prone thing will be gone, out of the window, again."
This move could he the pickup the unlucky RB needs.
