OWINGS MILLS, Md. — The Ravens conducted their first live-contact practice of the summer on Saturday with two key players still sidelined with ailments.
Wide receiver Breshad Perriman (knee bruise) and veteran linebacker Elvis Dumervil (tendinitis) were absent for the second straight day of practice. Head coach John Harbaugh reiterated Friday that he doesn’t expect the rookie wideout to miss much time, but he would not disclose where Dumervil’s tendinitis is located.
The Sun reported Saturday that Dumervil is dealing with a sore Achilles tendon.
Wide receiver Marlon Brown was missing from Saturday’s practice, but offensive coordinator Marc Trestman did not have information on his condition when asked after practice. Harbaugh was not available to reporters on Saturday.
With Perriman and Brown both sidelined, Kamar Aiken worked with the starting unit opposite veteran Steve Smith while Michael Campanaro received more opportunities as the No. 3 receiver.
Other players missing from the workout included linebacker Andrew Bose and the three players who remain on the physically unable to perform list: tight end Dennis Pitta (hip), safety Terrence Brooks (knee), and defensive tackle Casey Walker (knee).

Right Now in Baltimore
Podcasts, Pearl Jam passion and the present tense with The Mayne Event
They met on the backstretch at Pimlico three decades ago and The Mayne Event always returns and never disappoints for sports, comedy, charity and why Eddie Vedder shouldn't trust Nestor. Longtime ESPNer Kenny Mayne checks in for another round of tales of wiffle ball with Ken Griffey, podcasts with the other Manning and still being pissed off about the Sonics (and Pilots) departure from Seattle.
Running back Tampa 25 years later with Ravens RB coach Matt Simon
These milestones continue to add up as the 25th anniversary of the Baltimore Ravens' Super Bowl XXXV win is coming later this month and Nestor is catching up with many of the Purple Reign legacies about life – on and off the field – as we celebrate the night we all felt the civic pride of that first miracle in Tampa. Reflections here with the man who coached Jamal Lewis, Priest Holmes, Sam Gash and Femi Ayanbadejo a quarter of a century ago.
The Ravens weren't good enough on the field
Firing the head coach and changing leadership will certainly create an interesting offseason in Owings Mills. No one covers the Xs and Os of the NFL like Mike Tanier of Too Deep Zone. The one-time geometry teacher of Joe Flacco joins Nestor to discuss the depth and salary cap numbers of the Baltimore Ravens roster and the structural changes Eric DeCosta will need even after Steve Bisciotti finds a new captain to lead Lamar Jackson.
