As cornerback Domonique Foxworth of the Baltimore Ravens prepares to come back from a torn ACL, he is expected to be ready to hit the field running next season.
“I don’t think we’re going to see too many side effects of him coming back early on,” Ravens coach John Harbaugh said. “He should be full speed right out of the gates.”
“I don’t know if he’s ahead of schedule, but the good thing is – if there is a light at the end of the tunnel or a silver lining to that cloud – at least he got hurt as early as possible,” Harbaugh said. “I mean it was before he even really started practice, so it gives him the maximum possible time to get that knee right.”
At this point Foxworth believes he could play right now if he had to. And Harbaugh agrees with him.
“He will be back,” Harbaugh said. “He’s spending a lot of time on some of the union stuff, but I know he’s also working out and he’s training. He’s doing great.”
This is certainly good news for a secondary that struggle quite a bit last season and will need all the talent they can get to improve.
