OWINGS MILLS, Md. โ Defensive end Cory Redding has expressed confidence that heโll play while wide receiver Anquan Boldinโs status remains more mysterious as the Ravens prepare to welcome the Cleveland Browns to town on Christmas Eve.
Neither veteran was present during the open portion of practice on Thursday after both veterans were listed as non-participants on Wednesdayโs injury report. Redding has been dealing with a right ankle injury for a couple weeks while Boldinโs absence is puzzling after he was present for the Ravensโ walk-through practice on Tuesday. The No. 1 receiver is listed on the report as having a knee injury.
Kicker Billy Cundiff (left calf) was not present during the portion of practice viewed by media, a strong indication that newly-signed veteran Shayne Graham will handle kicking duties against Cleveland on Saturday. Cundiff hasnโt practiced since Dec. 7 despite having kicked in the Ravensโ last two games.
Referee Walt Coleman and his crew will officiate Saturday afternoonโs game between the Ravens and Cleveland. The weather forecast predicts sunny conditions with temperatures in the mid-40s.
