Former Ravens running back JK Dobbins is set to join the Los Angeles Chargers on a one-year deal.
The 25-year-old spent four years in Baltimore and he will now play under former Ravens offensive coordinator Greg Roman, who recently joined LA in the same role.
Dobbins suffered a season-ending Achilles tear in the 2023 season opener against the Houston Texans, managing only eight carries for 22 yards before his campaign was cut short.
Injuries plagued the running back earlier in his NFL career seasons, too. Dobbins amassed 805 rushing yards and nine touchdowns as a rookie in 2020.
But he then tore an anterior cruciate ligament in a 2021 exhibition game, forcing him to miss the entire season.

After a breakthrough rookie season in Baltimore, Dobbins has suffered a series of injuries
Dobbins returned to action in 2022 but was hampered by another knee injury that limited him to eight games. He managed just 520 yards and two touchdowns that year.
The Ravens selected Dobbins in the second round of the 2020 draft (55th overall) out of Ohio State.
Earlier this month, the free agent running back was in Kansas City, visiting the reigning Super Bowl champion Chiefs.
He also flew west to visit the Chargers, who recently lost Austin Ekeler to the Washington Commanders in free agency and brought in Gus Edwards from Baltimore.
