Speaking to reporters for the first time since getting his knee scoped, Willis McGahee said he has a timetable of sorts for his return.

"I will be ready [for the regular season] but I don't know about playing in the preseason," the running back said today.

McGahee has missed most of training camp and the first two preseason games because of a knee injury. He said he doesn't know when he will begin to jog.

In Saturday's 23-15 preseason loss to the Minnesota Vikings, rookie running back Ray Rice ran for 77 yards and a touchdown in filling in for McGahee. After the game, coach John Harbaugh reiterated that McGahee would be the starting running back when he is ready to return.
