Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Breshad Perriman has not practiced since suffering a knee injury July 30. After missing all of the preseason and the team's first three regular-season games, he reinjured his PCL in warm-ups Sept. 27.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported on Oct. 1 that Dr. James Andrews performed arthroscopic surgery and the wide receiver is out indefinitely.

Harbaugh Comments on Perriman Injury

Thursday, Oct. 1

"There’s no new injury of any kind. It’s just a slow-healing ligament, for whatever reason," Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said before Baltimore's Week 4 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, per the Ravens' official Twitter account.

Harbaugh added it's "a matter of time" before Perriman returns, according to Jeff Zrebiec of the Baltimore Sun.

Perriman Reinjures PCL

Sunday, Sept. 27

ESPN.com's Jamison Hensley reported Perriman "pulled up while trying to run down a deep pass in the end zone. He limped afterward and didn't run any routes after that. There was a brief conversation with a trainer, but Perriman remained on the field and caught passes while standing still. Before Perriman tweaked the injury, he was running close to full speed."

On Sept. 15, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reported Perriman's knee issue was improving prior to the setback.

"It's just slower healing than expected," Harbaugh previously said on Aug. 27, according to WNST.

How Perriman's Injury Impacts Ravens

Perriman was expected to be a starting receiver opposite Steve Smith Sr. in 2015, but he is behind in terms of preparation.

Harbaugh's concern is understandable, considering what happened to Chicago Bears rookie Kevin White. After missing training camp with what few expected to be a serious injury, it was announced that White needed surgery to repair a fracture in his shin, which will keep him out for at least the first six weeks of the regular season, according to ESPN.com's Jeff Dickerson.

Perriman will have to battle the likes of Kamar Aiken and Marlon Brown for a starting spot when he returns, after most anticipated he would step in for the departed Torrey Smith right away.

While Perriman may ultimately be the player the Ravens envisioned when they drafted him, the learning curve could end up being a bit steeper because of how much time he has missed.
