The Facts: The Ravens drafted tight end Hayden Hurst with the 25th overall pick and then saw him go down with a stress fracture in his foot in August. Hurst posted an x-ray of his foot with a screw in it on Instagram Tuesday and indicated that it had been removed because he’s now 100 percent.
Diehards Line:Hurst would return in time to play in 12 games, but managed just 13 catches for 163 yards and a touchdown in those appearances. His chances of improving on that in 2019 should be helped by continued improvement on the health front. Nick Boyle and Maxx Williams are headed toward free agency, which leaves Hurst and 2018 third-round pick Mark Andrews as the tight ends under contract in Baltimore.
