McGahee Hasn't Regained His Starting Spot

Although Baltimore Ravens veteran running back Willis McGahee returned to practice Tuesday after skipping a voluntary minicamp a week ago, he has not regained his starting job as he spent the majority of the practice with the second team while Ray Rice lined up with the starters. It's evident that McGahee still needs to prove himself to a coaching staff that grew frustrated with him last season after he admittedly reported to training camp out of shape. Ravens coach John Harbaugh issued a terse reply when asked about McGahee's progress. "I don't know," Harbaugh said. "I have no idea where he's at. It's the first day he's been here in a week and a half. I can't gauge it."

The Baltimore Sun and the Carroll County Times both report that McGahee did in fact undergo a scope on his knee this offseason.

Both papers and the team revealed the knee surgery last month, but McGahee insisted it was an ankle issue. Considering his history, knee surgery is a much bigger concern than ankle surgery.
