GUS EDWARDS NEWS

Over 100 scrimmage yards in win Edwards rushed 15 times for 85 yards and secured both his targets for 37 yards in the Ravens' 27-13 win over the Giants on Sunday.

Impact Edwards ended up pacing the Ravens in rushing yards, slightly outgaining Lamar Jackson (80 yards) and J.K. Dobbins (77 yards), the latter having exited the game briefly in the second half with a chest injury. Edwards' receiving yardage total also qualified as second on the team for the afternoon, and the third-year back now boasts four games with at least 73 yards rushing despite not having logged more than 16 carries in any of those contests. The 25-year-old will look to continue producing in a complementary capacity during Baltimore's Week 17 divisional clash versus the Bengals.

Logs nine carries Edwards rushed the ball nine times for 42 yards in Week 15 against the Jaguars. He added two receptions for 36 yards.

Impact Edwards led the Ravens offense on their opening drive, taking the first two handoffs of the game. However, he was ultimately out-touched by J.K. Dobbins 15-11. Despite the limited workload, Edwards had chances to produce, specifically taking a handoff to the two-yard line before being replaced by Dobbins to begin the second quarter. Similarly, Edwards broke off a 34-yard run early in the third quarter that ended five yards shy of the end zone, though Lamar Jackson ultimately capped the drive with a touchdown rush of his own. Edwards should be in line for a similar workload in Week 16 against the Giants.

Adds two touchdowns Edwards rushed seven times for 49 yards and two touchdowns in Monday night's 47-42 win over the Browns. He also caught his lone target for four yards.

Impact Edwards scored from 11 yards out during the second quarter, then scampered in from the 19 to begin the third. That brought his season total up to six touchdowns, all of which have come over his last eight games. Although rookie J.K. Dobbins again led the Ravens' tailbacks in carries Monday, Edwards still followed last week's 100-yard outing with another valuable display, putting him in fine form ahead of a favorable matchup against the Jaguars in Week 15.

Pops with 100-plus yards Edwards ran for 101 yards on seven carries during Tuesday's 34-17 win against Dallas.

Impact Baltimore reached 200-plus rush yards for the 12th time since the start of 2019, while also posting the second-highest rushing output of any team this season (294 yards). Edwards was integral to attaining those distinctions, breaking off three runs of 20-plus yards against a Cowboys defense that has conceded more than 260 rushing yards on three different occasions this season. However, he only garnered one more carry than Mark Ingram in Ingram's return from a stint on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Nevertheless, with an explosive performance in Week 13, Edwards seems poised to maintain a significant role for the stretch run.

Among four active Ravens RBs Edwards is active alongside fellow running backs J.K. Dobbins, Mark Ingram and Justice Hill on Tuesday against the Cowboys.

Impact During a Week 12 loss at Pittsburgh, the Ravens were without Dobbins and Ingram, who were on the reserve/COVID-19 list. As a result, Edwards and Justice Hill split the RB workload, with the former turning nine carries into 10 yards and one TD while the latter had 11 touches for 40 yards from scrimmage. The presence of Dobbins and Ingram on Tuesday further clouds how much work Edwards can expect. Having said that, Baltimore may very well attempt to exploit the Cowboys' bottom-ranked run defense by feeding Edwards, Dobbins and Ingram early and often.

Finds end zone in loss Edwards rushed nine times for just 10 yards but did notch a one-yard touchdown in the Ravens' 19-14 loss to the Steelers on Wednesday.

Impact As his final line indicates, Edwards mostly had a miserable time finding running room against the Steelers' stingy defensive front. However, he did salvage his day to an extent from a fantasy perspective by powering into the end zone from a yard out with 2:07 remaining in the first quarter to turn a Ray-Ray McCloud muffed punt into points. Edwards' extended opportunity Wednesday came with both Mark Ingram and J.K. Dobbins still on the reserve/COVID-19 list, but with both players likely to be ready for Tuesday night's Week 14 battle versus the Cowboys, his role could be more modest in that contest.

Slated for starting role Wednesday Edwards is on track to serve as the Ravens' starting running back in Wednesday's game against the Steelers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Confirming a report from Michele Tafoya of NBC Sports, Rapoport relays that neither J.K. Dobbins (illness) nor Mark Ingram (illness) will be activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of the Week 12 contest. With top quarterback Lamar Jackson (illness) also sitting out while Robert Griffin steps in behind center, Edwards looks like the clear top candidate to dominate the carries for Baltimore. Edwards hasn't shown much aptitude as a pass catcher during his three-year career, however, so he could cede reps to fourth-stringer Justice Hill on third downs and in obvious passing situations.

Impact Even with this game getting moved for a second time, Edwards is poised to lead Baltimore's backfield after both Mark Ingram and J.K. Dobbins tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday. Considering the Ravens rank second in the NFL in rush play percentage (51.9) and Edwards has averaged 5.1 yards per carry through two-plus seasons, he could have a productive outing Tuesday, assuming the game is played.
