Gus Edwards Status

rotoWire
Edwards and the Ravens have agreed to a reworked contract that reduces his 2023 salary by about $1 million but gives him the opportunity to earn the money back via incentives, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

What it means:

With his base salary dropping from $4.38 million to less than $3.5 million, Edwards likely will avoid being a cap casualty and play at least one more season for the only NFL team he's known. Injuries limited him to nine games last year after he missed all of 2021 with an ACL tear, but Edwards remained efficient on a per-carry basis with just a hair under 5.0 YPC (4.98). He turns 28 in April and has a good chance to keep the No. 2 RB job behind J.K. Dobbins, who also missed 2021 with an ACL tear and ultimately played fewer than 10 games in 2022.
rotoWire
Edwards rushed 12 times for 39 yards and caught his only target for 13 yards in Sunday's 24-17 wild-card round loss to the Bengals.

What it means:

Edwards rotated with J.K. Dobbins, but the latter was far more effective on a per-touch basis, totaling 105 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on 17 touches. The Ravens were eliminated from the playoffs with this loss. Edwards has one more year left on his contract after rushing for 433 yards and three touchdowns in nine regular-season appearances.

Gus Edwards (concussion) not listed on Ravens' Wild Card injury report

What it means:

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards (concussion) is available for Sunday's Wild Card contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. After Edwards cleared concussion protocol and participated in limited and full practices on Thursday and Friday, Baltimore's running back will be available against his division rivals. In a matchup versus a Bengals' team allowing 17.8 FanDuel points per game to his position, Edwards' Wild Card playoff salary stands at $5,100.
rotoWire
Edwards (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's playoff opener against the Bengals.

What it means:

Edwards, who previously relayed that he had cleared the NFL's concussion protocol, was listed as a full practice participant Friday, paving the way for him to remain part of the Ravens' backfield mix this weekend. With top signal caller Lamar Jackson (knee) still out and Tyler Huntley (shoulder, questionable) a candidate to draw the start at QB on Sunday, the Ravens could lean heavily on their ground games versus Cincinnati. In that context, Edwards figures to log complementary touches behind J.K. Dobbins, with Justice Hill and/or Kenyan Drake in reserve.
rotoWire
Edwards (heads) has cleared concussion protocol and expects to play in Sunday's game at Cincinnati, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

What it means:

With Lamar Jackson (knee) out and Tyler Huntley (shoulder) a game-time decision, the Ravens will continue to lean on their rushing attack and defense. It's a tall task against the Bengals, but Edwards should provide some additional punch behind lead back J.K. Dobbins.
rotoWire
Edwards (concussion) was listed as a limited practice participant Thursday.

What it means:

Edwards, who landed in the NFL's concussion protocol following Week 18 action, didn't practice Wednesday, but the running back's return in a limited capacity Thursday offers hope that he could gain clearance for Sunday night's playoff game against the Bengals. However, unless Edwards practices fully Friday, he figures to head into the weekend with an official injury designation.
