The Baltimore Ravens got some good news regarding the fate of their young receiver Breshad Perriman Tuesday.
After the news recently broke that Perriman may have torn the ACL in his left knee, a second opinion from Dr. James Andrews revealed that this was not the case. Instead, Perriman’s ACL was "deemed stable," and only a stem cell injection would be required. A source close to ESPN’s Adam Schefter said that Perriman, "will be fine for the season."
