OWINGS MILLS, Md. โ€” Ravens defensive tackle Brandon Williams appears to be moving closer to his return, but whether that comes against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday remains to be seen.
Despite being on the field and in uniform during the portion of Wednesdayโ€™s practice open to media, Williams was listed as a non-participant as he continues to recover from a foot injury sustained in Week 2. The fifth-year defensive lineman missed his first game since his rookie season in Sundayโ€™s lopsided 44-7 loss to Jacksonville.
The Ravens were also without two tight ends during the practice session as veteran Benjamin Watson (calf) was a new addition to the injury report. Third-year tight end Maxx Williams remains out with an ankle injury suffered in the Sept. 17 win over Cleveland. With those two currently sidelined, tight end Ryan Malleck was re-signed to the practice squad on Wednesday.
Head coach John Harbaugh confirmed that defensive end Brent Urban would miss the remainder of the season with a Lisfranc injury in his foot. Urban was officially placed on injured reserve Wednesday afternoon, creating the need for the likes of Bronson Kaufusi and Chris Wormley to emerge in his place.
To take Urbanโ€™s place on the 53-man roster. Freeny, a sixth-year veteran, was most recently with New England and has appeared in 62 career games in his NFL career.
Meanwhile, the Steelers held six players out of their Wednesday practice, a list that included wide receiver Martavis Bryant (illness) and former Maryland defensive back Sean Davis (ankle). Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and running back Leโ€™Veon Bell were both given the day off.
Below is Wednesdayโ€™s full injury report:
BALTIMORE
DID NOT PARTICIPATE: CB Jaylen Hill (thigh), TE Benjamin Watson (calf), DT Brandon Williams (foot), TE Maxx Williams (ankle)
PITTSBURGH
DID NOT PARTICIPATE: RB Leโ€™Veon Bell (non-injury), WR Martavis Bryant (illness), S Sean Davis (ankle), G Ramon Foster (thumb), S Michael Mitchell (hamstring), QB Ben Roethlisberger (non-injury)
