The Ravens produced a more encouraging injury report on Thursday with the return of three starters to the practice field as they continued preparations for a Week 6 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Safety Matt Elam (shoulder contusion), linebacker Daryl Smith (knee), and center Jeremy Zuttah (ankle) all practiced on a limited basis a day after sitting out with their respective ailments. Baltimore was without eight players from their 53-man roster during Wednesday’s workout.
The Ravens are expected to be without defensive end Chris Canty (wrist surgery), offense tackle Eugene Monroe (knee surgery), and defensive tackle Timmy Jernigan (meniscus) on Sunday as all three are dealing with longer-term injuries.
There were no changes to Tampa Bay’s injury report on Thursday as wide receiver Vincent Jackson (rib) and safety Dashon Goldson (ankle) remained sidelined.
