Rasheen Ali - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Dealing with injury Ali has an undisclosed injury that forced him to miss the Ravens' preseason opener Saturday against the Eagles, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The running back also had to sit for most of the practice week leading up to that contest, per Hensley. Ali recorded 763 kickoff-return yards in 2025, and if he can return soon enough, he should be in line to play a similar role this season. The fifth-round pick in the 2024 draft remains third on the running back depth chart behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill.

Modest step forward in 2025 Ali finished the year with seven carries for 24 yards along with nine catches for 68 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets. He was also used in the return game with 763 kick return y...

Impact Ali was more involved in Year 2 than he was as a rookie, but he was still a ways away from making weekly impacts. Baltimore, of course, leans heavily on Derrick Henry and Lamar Jackson for much of its rushing attack, so opportunities are inherently limited for depth pieces like Ali. Justice Hill's injury late in the season could have opened a door, but Keaton Mitchell absorbed the bulk of the snaps. Ali enters 2026 with a similar outlook. Established veterans stack the depth chart ahead of him. If Keaton Mitchell is re-signed, Ali will have several hurdles in his way of seeing consistent playing time.

Used in passing game vs Packers Ali had two catches for eight yards on three targets Saturday against the Packers.

Impact Ali was shut out of the rushing rotation Saturday as Derrick Henry and Keaton Mitchell took all the carries among running backs. He had three targets, though, which wasa respectable share considering Baltimore only threw the ball 20 times. Ali seems to have carved out a role as a pass-catching specialist out of the backfield but Baltimore is not using him as a rusher. He has just six carries for 24 yards on the season.

Catches two passes in loss Ali caught both of his targets for two yards during Sunday night's 28-24 loss to the Patriots. He also returned one kickoff for 29 yards.

Impact The second-year pro from Marshall has become more involved in Baltimore's passing game over the last three weeks, catching six of seven targets for 45 yards and a touchdown during that span. Ali has served as one of the Ravens' top return men this season, tallying 712 kick-return yards over 13 appearances. He's expected to remain a depth option in Baltimore's backfield and the primary kick returner in the Week 17 matchup against the Packers.

Ravens defense sends a message by shutting out Cincinnati. Tavius Robinson's return was key

Baltimore became the first team to shut out Cincinnati since Joe Burrow was drafted

Reaches end zone in victory Ali caught both of his targets for 32 yards and a touchdown while also adding a 32-yard kickoff return in Sunday's 24-0 win over the Bengals.

Impact Ali finished second on the team in both catches and receiving yards, most notably turning a short reception into a 30-yard touchdown in the second quarter. The running back appears to have carved out a solid role for himself in the passing game, reeling in four of five targets for 43 yards and a score over the last two contests. He remains behind Derrick Henry and Keaton Mitchell on the depth chart, but Ali may garner more opportunities moving forward.

Highlight: Rasheen Ali Scores First Career Touchdown RB Rasheen Ali hits pay dirt for the first time in his career on a 30-yard catch-and-run.

DECEMBER 14, 2025 • BALTIMORERAVENS.COM

Three touches in loss Ali rushed once for two yards and caught two of three targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Steelers.

Impact Ali played 27 of the Ravens' 80 offensive snaps, behind Derrick Henry (43) and ahead of Keaton Mitchell (12). The second-year running back was not a major factor in the contest, recording just 13 total yards on his three touches. As long as Henry is healthy, Ali figures to continue to see limited usage in Baltimore's offense. The Marshall product should remain far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 15 matchup against the Bengals.

Impact Ali had just four touches on offense during Thursday's loss, though his 29 snaps were notably higher than RB1 Derrick Henry (24) as game script worked against the latter.

Impact Ali worked exclusively on special teams in the two games since the Ravens' Week 7 bye. He will be a sideline observer for Sunday's game in Minnesota as the Ravens go with three running backs on the active roster in Derrick Henry, Justice Hill and Keaton Mitchell. Ali's next opportunity to play is Week 11 against the Browns on Sunday, Nov. 16.

NOVEMBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Limited to special teams Ali returned three kickoffs for 88 yards in Sunday's 30-16 win over the Bears.

Impact Ali has been active for all seven of the Ravens' games this season, but he continues to be deployed almost exclusively on special teams. The reserve running back has logged just five offensive snaps all season and hasn't had a touch since carrying once for five yards in Baltimore's Week 1 loss to Buffalo.
