OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Several Ravens players are still feeling the effects from the physical battle in Pittsburgh while shifting their attention toward the Week 15 trip to Cleveland.
Wide receiver Mike Wallace was the only player on the 53-man roster to miss Wednesday’s indoor practice, but four others were limited participants during the workout. Wallace turned his right ankle in the first quarter of Sunday’s game, but he returned on the next drive after having it taped and finished with three catches for 72 yards.
Wallace was not in the locker room to talk with reporters after practice, but he was on the field for the team’s walk-through earlier in the day.
Cornerback Maurice Canady (knee), center Ryan Jensen (ankle), and wide receiver Chris Moore (hip) were all listed as limited. Moore left Sunday’s game with the injury in the second half, but his presence at practice this early in the week bodes well for his availability. The 2016 fourth-round pick is steadily emerging as an offensive contributor, catching a 30-yard touchdown pass and finishing with three receptions for a career-high 48 yards against the Steelers.
“He really made some plays,” head coach John Harbaugh said Monday. “Chris came up, obviously, with a touchdown pass, which was big. The sideline catch — the diving catch — was big. He’s coming on. That’s exciting for us, and hopefully he’s out there next Sunday.”
Outside linebacker Za’Darius Smith (shoulder) returned to practice as a limited participant after missing Sunday’s game against the Steelers.
Meanwhile, the winless Browns were without cornerbacks Jamar Taylor (foot) and Briean Boddy-Calhoun (knee) for a walk-through practice. Defensive tackle Danny Shelton (chest/ribs) and rookie safety Jabrill Peppers (knee) were estimated as limited participants.
Below is Wednesday’s full injury report:
