Perriman To Meet with Dr. James Andrews on Monday
Saturday, June 11
ESPN's Adam Schefter provided the update.
Perriman missed his entire rookie season with a PCL injury that required surgery, and he said in May that the ailment took a toll in him.
According to Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official website, Perriman said he "shut everyone out" after the injury-riddled campaign put him in a "dark hole."
"It’s been crazy," Perriman said, per Mink. "I've been through a lot this offseason, but it's just making me stronger again and just learning to keep faith and pray a lot more. It’s been rough. It still is rough from time to time, but I’m steady getting through it, pushing through it and keeping faith."
The 26th pick of the 2015 draft, Perriman has the size (6'2", 218 lbs) and speed necessary to evolve into one of quarterback Joe Flacco's primary targets.
And given tight end Dennis Pitta (30) and wide receiver Steve Smith Sr. (37) are both coming off injury-plagued seasons, Baltimore was likely hoping Perriman would be able to make his injury woes a thing of the past.
But now that his season is in doubt, the Ravens will be forced to pivot back to their aged weapons and newcomer Mike Wallace.
