OWINGS MILLS, Md. — The Ravens are expected to again be shorthanded at the wide receiver position Sunday as Jeremy Maclin is listed as doubtful to play against Cincinnati.
The veteran hasn’t practiced or played since injuring his left knee in the first quarter of the Week 15 win at Cleveland on Dec. 17. With Maclin unlikely to suit up, second-year wide receiver Chris Moore is expected to start opposite Mike Wallace for the second straight week.
Wide receiver Mike Wallace (knee), right tackle Austin Howard (knee), and defensive tackle Brandon Williams (back) were all listed as questionable on the final injury report, but all were full participants in Friday’s workout, leaving very little doubt about their availability against the Bengals. Fullback and defensive lineman Patrick Ricard (neck) was limited in practices all week — wearing a red non-contact vest over his jersey — and is also questionable for Sunday’s game.
The Bengals will be without starting left tackle Cedric Ogbuehi (shoulder), who will miss his second straight contest. Standout linebacker Vontaze Burfict (shoulder) is listed as doubtful to play after sitting out practices all week.
Rookie running back Joe Mixon (ankle) and cornerback Williams Jackson (knee) are questionable for Cincinnati.
According to Weather.com, the Sunday forecast in Baltimore calls for partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the 20s and falling after the 4:25 p.m. kickoff. Winds will be 10 to 20 miles per hour with no chance of precipitation.
Below is the final injury report of the week:
BALTIMORE
DOUBTFUL: WR Jeremy Maclin (knee)
QUESTIONABLE: OL Jermaine Eluemunor (shoulder), OT Austin Howard (knee), DL/FB Patrick Ricard (neck), WR Mike Wallace (knee), DT Brandon Williams (back)

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.
