OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Completing their final full practice in Owings Mills before traveling to Arizona on Saturday, the Ravens continued to be without safety Kendrick Lewis and four others on Friday.
Dealing with what head coach John Harbaugh described as a “bone bruise” in his left knee, Lewis missed his third straight day of practice ahead of Monday night’s game against the Cardinals. With second-year safety Terrence Brooks also sidelined with a thumb injury, the Ravens may be forced to use the combination of Anthony Levine and Brynden Trawick at the starting spot opposite strong safety Will Hill.
Undrafted rookie safety Nick Perry is currently on the practice squad, but Harbaugh would not reveal whether the Ravens would prefer to add another healthy safety to the 53-man roster. Baltimore is currently carrying fourth running backs on the active roster and starter Justin Forsett is no longer listed on the injury report.
“We’ll just leave that up to speculation,” Harbaugh said. “We’ve got our plans, and we’ll follow through on those plans.”
Also missing from Friday’s workout were defensive end Chris Canty (calf), tight end Maxx Williams (knee/ankle), and wide receiver Breshad Perriman. Canty had practiced on a limited basis on Wednesday and Thursday, but he has missed Baltimore’s last four games with a calf injury suffered in the Week 2 loss to Oakland.
Cornerback Asa Jackson (thigh) returned to practice on Friday along with linebackers Elvis Dumervil and Daryl Smith, who each received a veteran day off on Thursday.
Cornerback Lardarius Webb (thigh) and right guard Marshal Yanda (ankle) were both present and working after being listed as limited participants on Thursday.
Below is Friday’s full injury report:
