Keaton Mitchell continues to miss out on the action with the Baltimore Ravens.
For a fourth consecutive week, the third-year running back is inactive. This time, the Ravens will play the Kansas City Chiefs without Mitchell.
In 2023, Mitchell had a ridiculous 8.4 yards per carry as a rookie.
In his injury return, he ran just 15 times for 30 yards in 2024.
But a productive summer gave hope to Mitchell supporters that hasn't come to fruition so far.

Is Keaton Mitchell playing today?
Keaton Mitchell is evidently the fourth RB option on a Ravens team that only wants three up for gamedays: Derrick Henry, Justice Hill and Rasheen Ali.
Ravens coach John Harbaugh recently explained it.
"We just don’t have the spot right now,” Harbaugh told reporters. “I guess in some ways, that’s a good problem to have, but I would much rather see him out there and see him active on gameday.”
Earlier in the season, Harbaugh also said that Mitchell is essentially good right now for "designer plays," but not the full flow of an offense.
This isn't a great situation for Mitchell. And without an injury, it's hard to see how anything will change.
