Mosley, Perriman return to Ravens practice after one-day absence

OWINGS MILLS, Md. — After missing Wednesday’s practice with a calf injury, Ravens wide receiver Breshad Perriman returned to the field a day later as fans breathed a sigh of relief.
The 2015 first-round pick did not appear to be working at full speed during the portion of practice open to reporters, but he was listed as a full participant on Thursday’s injury report. Though unwilling to discuss specifics related to the injury, he said after practice that he felt good and expected to play in Sunday’s game against Cleveland.
Inside linebacker C.J. Mosley (thigh) also returned to practice as a full participant after a one-day absence. The 2014 Pro Bowl selection downplayed the significance of the ailment on Wednesday.
Linebackers Elvis Dumervil (foot) and Za’Darius Smith (ankle) and running back Kenneth Dixon (knee) remained sidelined with their respective ailments. Though he hasn’t been officially ruled out yet, Dumervil is not expected to play in Week 2 as he continues to work his way back to full strength after suffering a setback in his return from offseason foot surgery.
Smith’s status is also a concern after he had previously dealt with an ankle injury over the final two weeks of the preseason. Should he not be able to play, the Ravens would be light at the outside linebacker position behind starters Terrell Suggs and Albert McClellan.
Rookie Matt Judon would once again be in the mix as a situational pass rusher, but defensive coordinator Dean Pees would likely need to turn to at least one more option such as veteran Chris Carter or rookie Kamalei Correa. Those two were core special-teams players against Buffalo, but neither played a defensive snap in the 13-7 win.
Suggs and five-time Pro Bowl guard Marshal Yanda received the day off from practice on Thursday, which happened to be the latter’s 32nd birthday.
Center Jeremy Zuttah was back at practice on Thursday after receiving the previous day off.
Meanwhile, Browns left tackle Joe Thomas returned to practice after receiving the previous day off.
