OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Wide receiver Jeremy Maclin is the only Ravens player still sidelined from practice as Sunday’s critical Week 17 meeting with Cincinnati approaches.
A win would clinch Baltimore’s first playoff appearance since 2014, but the starting wide receiver could miss his second straight game since injuring his left knee in the first quarter of the 27-10 win over Cleveland on Dec. 17. Second-year wideout Chris Moore would likely start in Maclin’s place opposite Mike Wallace if the veteran is unable to play.
The Ravens were able to welcome right tackle Austin Howard back to the practice field a day after he sat out with a knee issue. Howard hyperextended his left knee in last Saturday’s win over Indianapolis, but he missed only a few snaps before returning to action. The 30-year-old was wearing a brace on his left knee and was officially listed as a limited participant during Thursday’s indoor workout.
Fullback Patrick Ricard (neck) was once again wearing a red non-contact vest over his practice jersey and was limited for a second straight day.
Wide receiver Mike Wallace (knee) was upgraded to full participation on Thursday.
Meanwhile, the Bengals welcomed rookie running back Joe Mixon (ankle) and starting cornerback William Jackson (knee) back to the practice field.
Below is Thursday’s full injury report:
