OWINGS MILLS, Md. — The Ravens may have been hammered with injuries over the summer, but just one player from their current roster was absent from Wednesday’s practice.
Rookie cornerback Jaylen Hill has been sidelined with a thigh injury since last week and appears to be in danger of missing Sunday’s season opener in Cincinnati. It’s an unfortunate development for the undrafted free agent from Jacksonville State who earned a spot on the 53-man roster as one of the best stories of the preseason.
Cornerback Sheldon Price wore a red non-contact jersey and practiced on a limited basis after sustaining a concussion in the preseason finale last Thursday.
Quarterback Joe Flacco (back) was a full participant and is set to start against the Bengals despite missing the entire preseason. Wide receiver Breshad Perriman (hamstring), running back Danny Woodhead (hamstring), and left tackle Ronnie Stanley (knee) also practiced without any issue after dealing with injuries for much of the summer.
Already without linebacker Vontaze Burfice and cornerback Adam Jones because of suspensions, the Bengals are expected to be without safety Shawn Williams (elbow) and 2017 first-round wide receiver John Ross (knee) in the opener.
Below is Wednesday’s full injury report:
BALTIMORE

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.
