GREEN BAY, Wis. — A disappointing NFL career hit a new low for Ravens wide receiver Breshad Perriman on Sunday.
The 2015 first-round pick is a healthy inactive as Baltimore comes off its bye week to play Green Bay. Perriman has just seven catches on 26 targets this season and struggled mightily against Tennessee in Week 9, failing to high-point two deep shots — one of them leading to an interception — and dropping another pass in the 23-20 loss to the Titans.
The returning Michael Campanaro (shoulder) essentially takes Perriman’s game-day spot, giving the Ravens four active wide receivers against the Packers. The activation of running back Danny Woodhead will give quarterback Joe Flacco another viable option in the passing game.
As anticipated when he was listed as doubtful on the final injury report released Friday, starting left tackle Ronnie Stanley is officially out as he continues to recover from a concussion sustained in Week 9. His absence means starting left guard James Hurst will move outside to left tackle with reserve Luke Bowanko moving into the vacated sport, an unsettling development for a road game.
Despite practicing fully all week and seemingly being over his calf injury, running back Terrance West is inactive for the fifth straight game. His lack of special-teams contributions and the surprising emergence of Alex Collins have clearly changed his standing on the roster.
Defensive ends Chris Wormley and Bronson Kaufusi are both inactive as the Ravens elected to have an extra edge rusher active in the returning Tim Williams. The rookie third-round pick had missed four straight games with a hamstring injury, but he practiced fully all week.
Meanwhile, the banged-up Packers will be without second-round rookie cornerback Kevin King as well as running backs Aaron Jones (knee) and Ty Montgomery (ribs), who were officially declared out on Friday. Green Bay will also be without versatile safety Morgan Burnett as he continues to recover from a groin injury.
Sunday’s referee is Jeff Triplette.
According to Weather.com, the Sunday forecast in Green Bay calls for partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the low 30s with winds up to 14 miles per hour and no chance of precipitation.
The Ravens are wearing white jerseys and white pants while Green Bay dons its throwback uniforms that include navy and gold jerseys and tan pants.
Sunday marks the first time since 2013 that these teams have played with the Packers owning the 4-1 all-time advantage. The Ravens are seeking their first ever win at Lambeau Field in their fourth trip to Green Bay.
