Ravens RB Keaton Mitchell to start season on PUP list

The Baltimore Ravens’ most explosive player will be absent for the first month of the 2024 regular season.

Adam Schefter reports that second-year running back Keaton Mitchell will start the season on the PUP list, meaning he’ll miss the first four games.

Mitchell suffered a torn ACL in a 23-7 win over the Jaguars in Week 15 last season.

In 2023, the undrafted rookie outplayed Melvin Gordon in the preseason and was the most productive running back on the roster by midseason.

Mitchell was one of the highest-graded players on offense and finished his rookie year with 47 attempts, 396 yards, and two touchdowns in eight appearances with two starts.
