Footballguys view: Dixon has had knee problems in the past and never seemed like his old self post injury. The veteran might get some interest but it could take some time before he lands in the NFL again.

  Ravens | Kenneth Dixon injury update    Mon Sep 2, 04:47 PM

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (knee) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list because of a fractured knee but will be released with an injury settlement.

Footballguys view: Dixon flashed talent when he came out of Louisiana Tech in 2016 but injuries have derailed his career. It may take him some time to find a new team if anyone is willing to take a chance on the veteran who often seems to be banged up.

  Ravens | Kenneth Dixon solid    Fri Aug 30, 09:46 AM

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon rushed 13 times for 66 yards (5.1 yards per carry) in the final preseason game Thursday, Aug. 29.

Footballguys view: Dixon is right on the bubble and might make it with this performance. If he is cut, expect a claim from Green Bay or Houston, or at least a call early in the season when an injury hits a backfield. His talent is not in question, but he has trouble staying on the field.

  Ravens | Kenneth Dixon back at practice    Thu Jun 6, 05:26 PM

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (undisclosed) 'flashed his lateral movement' during organized team activities Thursday, June 6.

Footballguys view: Good news for the veteran back here. However, he's still behind Mark Ingram, Justice Hill, and Gus Edwards on the depth chart. We'll see if he can keep flashing his talent in practice and work his way into some role -- if he makes the team -- in 2019.

  Ravens | Kenneth Dixon sidelined    Fri May 31, 09:30 PM

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (undisclosed) has been unable to participate in OTAs this week because of an undisclosed injury.

Footballguys view: Dixon being banged up is nothing new. There is no word on what this injury is, so it's difficult to speculate how long he's going to be out. Free agent addition Mark Ingram should be the Ravens lead back in 2019. Gus Edwards, rookie Justice Hill and Dixon (when healthy) will compete to establish a pecking order behind Ingram.

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon ran eight times for 28 yards and caught two of his three targets for 20 more yards in Week 16 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Footballguys view: Dixon took a step back in his bid to be a bigger part of the offense in 2019 due to a fumble. He'll still be the #2 back in the run-heaviest offense in years against Cleveland next week.

  Ravens | Kenneth Dixon to see more work     Mon Dec 10, 03:00 PM

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon should expected his role 'to grow going forward,' according to head coach John Harbaugh.

Footballguys view: Fantasy GMs should have picked up Dixon a couple of weeks ago when he was designated to return off of Injured Reserve. If you didn't have the bench space then (and he's still out there), you may have to make room for him now. It's clear they want to get Dixon more involved and he's got flex appeal as the fantasy playoffs continue.

  Ravens | Kenneth Dixon activated from IR    Sat Dec 1, 11:23 AM

The Baltimore Ravens activated RB Kenneth Dixon (knee) from the Reserve/Injured list Saturday, Dec. 1.

Footballguys view: We'll grab Dixon as a lottery ticket move in deeper leagues. He's behind Gus Edwards, the lead back for the Ravens...but if Dixon gets an opportunity for a larger role he could make plays. Ty Montgomery and Buck Allen also crowd that backfield for Baltimore.

  Ravens | Kenneth Dixon an option for Week 13?    Fri Nov 30, 01:10 PM

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (knee) is under consideration to be added to the roster for Week 13 against the Atlanta Falcons, according to head coach John Harbaugh.

Footballguys view: Dixon wouldn't have fantasy value yet if he's called up, but if Gus Edwards ankle issue doesn't get better, his value could come on down the stretch. Ty Montgomery is the healthiest Ravens back, but it's clear that he won't last long under a heavy load.

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (knee) has been designated to return on the Reserve/Injured list, beginning his 21-day window to join the active roster or be placed on season-ending IR.

Footballguys view: Dixon will probably push Gus Edwards or Ty Montgomery off of the roster, but he won't have a significant enough role to add in redraft leagues.

  Ravens | Kenneth Dixon yet to receive league clearance    Mon Nov 5, 03:50 PM

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (knee) is 'having issues behind our coaches control,' according to head coach John Harbaugh, who added the team has to wait for the league to clear him to practice and he has yet to receive clearance.

Footballguys view: This is a mysterious situation to monitor if you're a Ravens fan. As a Fantasy GM, you've got no interest in Dixon unless you play in crazy deep dynasty leagues. The Ravens traded for Ty Montgomery last week and he'll start getting mixed into the offense in the near future.

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (knee) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Wednesday, Sept. 12. Free-agent RB De'Lance Turner (Ravens) was re-signed in a corresponding move.

Footballguys view: Dixon can be eligible to return in Week 11 if he's healthy. A fourth-round pick in the 2016 NFL draft, Dixon has only played in 13 games as a pro. Some may not believe there's such a thing as an 'injury prone' player....but Dixon certainly looks like one of those guys.

  Ravens | Kenneth Dixon likely to miss a few weeks    Mon Sep 10, 02:09 PM

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (knee) is expected to 'miss some time' after suffering a knee injury in the final minutes of Week 1 against the Buffalo Bills.

Footballguys view: Dixon flashed some talent on Sunday against the hapless Bills but he's always been a player who struggles to stay healthy. Here we go again with another knee problem for Dixon. The Ravens will continue to use Alex Collins as their lead back with Buck Allen filling in as the top reserve back.

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (hamstring), TE Mark Andrews (undisclosed), LB Tyus Bowser (undisclosed) and OT Greg Senat (undisclosed) all returned to practice Saturday, Aug. 4, after missing time over the past week.

Footballguys view: Dixon's absence was short enough that it shouldn't affect his status in the backfield. He's a battle with Javorius Allen for touches behind Alex Collins. Allen is the more reliable player, but Dixon has more talent and upside.

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (hamstring) and TE Mark Andrews (undisclosed) are out of practice Friday, July 27.

Footballguys view: Dixon hasn't played since 2016. While he is more talented than Javorius Allen, Allen has been so dependable that he is going to figure into the backfield is some way. The Ravens backfield is very productive and support two fantasy relevant backs, so one of Dixon or Allen will pay dividends on a late pick. As long as Dixon is sidelined, Allen is the favorite.

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (knee) said he his knee 'feels totally well,' and he is just working on some minor things during OTAs.

  Ravens | Kenneth Dixon could carve out a role    Sun May 27, 10:39 PM

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon will be a factor this year as long as he continues to do the right things 'on and off the field,' according to Jeff Zrebiec of the Baltimore Sun.

Footballguys view: Keep an eye on this backfield, especially if you want Alex Collins on your team (current ADP RB20 4.05, 12-team PPR). Dixon missed all of 2017 with a meniscus injury but is healthy now, and his all-purpose skill set could be tempting to get on the field.

  Ravens | Kenneth Dixon out for season    Tue Jul 25, 06:26 PM

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (knee) will be sidelined for the regular season after undergoing surgery on his medial collateral ligament Tuesday, July 25. The recovery time is expected to be four to five months.

Footballguys view: This was originally thought to be a meniscus injury that was minor and would only require 6-8 weeks to recover. Now the Ravens are locked into Terrance West as the starter with Danny Woodhead as a primary backup/receiving back. Perhaps guys like Rashad Jennings or DeAngelo Williams could be added off the free agent wire. The Ravens should also be looking to see if any backs become available through camp cuts in August.

Updating an earlier report, Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (knee) suffered a torn meniscus and will require surgery, according to a source. The hope is he just requires a trim of the cartilage, but his status will be determined after surgery.

Footballguys view: With a recovery time of 6-8 weeks, Dixon has time to heal -- especially since he's suspended the first four games of the year. Terrance West will lead the way for the Ravens on the ground with Danny Woodhead serving as a valuable change-of-pace back.
