Detroit Lions' Jahmyr Gibbs Set to Return from Hamstring Injury, Expected to Carry Heavy Workload against Ravens

As Lions face injury problems in the backfield, rookie Jahmyr Gibbs will shoulder a significant part of the team's running game against the Ravens despite recent recovery from a hamstring injury.

Jahmyr Gibbs is preparing to return to the field following his recent hamstring injury and is expected to carry a significant part of the Lions' running game against the Ravens.
Despite the potential risks linked to a heavy workload after recovering from an injury, the Lions are facing additional injury issues in the backfield that necessitate relying on Gibbs.
The Lions have depleted running back options with David Montgomery likely out due to a rib cartilage injury and backup Craig Reynolds dealing with hamstring and toe injuries.
Selected with the No. 12 pick in the 2023 draft, Gibbs' rookie season has been slow to start, with 249 yards from scrimmage and no touchdowns so far.
Despite Gibbs' slow start, the Lions have succeeded without significant contributions from their top draft pick, ranking in the top 10 for both points scored and conceded this season.
