He’ll be a game-time call, though Baltimore added Raheem Mostert off waivers this week for insurance.

Taliaferro was inactive in Week 1 while dealing with a sprained MCL in his knee, and returned to the fold as the team’s best rusher with seven carries for 34 yards and a touchdown in Week 2 against the Oakland Raiders.
The news of Taliaferro being shut down for the season comes as a shocker as he was listed as probable heading into the game Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. Taliaferro had just 47 yards this season and now Allen is going to get the chance to get a few more carries behind Forsett.
Forsett is looking to become the second Ravens player to rush for 120 yards in three straight games.
Forsett will nearly certainly be questionable on the final injury report, with a potential absence leaving rookie Javorius Allen to lead the Baltimore backfield.
The Ravens got the ball first but had to punt, and the Browns scored on the next series to win the game. He went undrafted out of Purdue and had an impressive preseason with the Philadelphia Eagles. The Dolphins then signed him to their active roster in Week 2.

Forsett did not practice today and the Ravens could enter Sunday’s game with Allen and Mostert as the top running backs when they travel to face the San Francisco 49ers this week.
