The Ravens will hope to get an important piece of their offensive line back as left tackle Eugene Monroe was officially designated as questionable for Saturday’s divisional playoff game in New England.
Monroe practiced on a limited basis all week in his first on-field activity since injuring his ankle in the Week 16 loss at Houston. Rookie free agent James Hurst has filled in for Monroe in each of the last two games, leaving the Ravens without either starting tackle after Rick Wagner was lost for the season in late December.
Should Monroe be able to play, the Ravens will be faced with an interesting decision of whether to shift Hurst to the right tackle spot — allowing Marshal Yanda to return to his normal right guard position — or to stay with the current alignment on the right side of rookie John Urschel at right guard and Yanda playing right tackle.
Rookie defensive tackle Timmy Jernigan (foot/ankle) was listed as probable to play against the Patriots after participating fully in practices all week. The 2014 second-round pick missed last week’s wild-card game in Pittsburgh after injury his left foot in the regular-season finale.
After enjoying their bye week, the Patriots are in excellent health after listing four players as probable for Saturday’s game.
BALTIMORE
QUESTIONABLE: OT Eugene Monroe (ankle)
PROBABLE: TE Owen Daniels (non-injury), DT Timmy Jernigan (foot/ankle), LB Daryl Smith (non-injury), LB Terrell Suggs (non-injury)
NEW ENGLAND
PROBABLE: QB Tom Brady (ankle), WR Julian Edelman (concussion), RB Jonas Gray (ankle), WR Brandon LaFell (shoulder/toe)
