Baltimore Ravens running back Justin Forsett was held out of practice on Wednesday with a leg injury. It's a new injury for Forsett, and his Week 9 status is unknown at the moment.
Lorenzo Taliaferro gets slight fantasy bump with Justin Forsett missing practice
Forsett was added to the injury report with a leg issue and did not practice Wednesday. We break down the fantasy implications.


Forsett didn't appear to suffer an injury in his last game, recording 85 total yards on 20 touches in the Ravens' loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. He continues to operate as the clear top back in Baltimore, leading the backfield with 45 offensive snaps. Rookie Lorenzo Taliaferro played just 17 offensive snaps, and Bernard Pierce was a healthy scratch.
Fantasy impact: The Ravens haven’t given any details about Forsett’s missed practice, so this is something fantasy owners will have to monitor all week. Forsett has been a quality RB2 play since winning the starting job, rushing for 274 yards in his last three games, although he has only three touchdowns this year.
The leg injury could be nothing, but this is a convenient reminder that Taliaferro should be rostered in all fantasy leagues. He'll come into play if Forsett is limited or forced to miss Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Forsett's status will be updated later in the week.
