The Ravens could be without two starting pieces of their front seven for Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts as linebacker Terrell Suggs is questionable and defensive end Chris Canty was designated as doubtful on the final injury report of the week.
Suggs did return to practice on a limited basis Friday after resting a groin injury he’s dealt with since the Ravens’ Week 3 win at Cleveland. The veteran pass rusher missed two practices last week before playing in last Sunday’s win over the Carolina Panthers, but he aggravated the groin in the fourth quarter of the 38-10 final.
Canty missed practice all week with an illness, but he had also been dealing with a knee injury that forced him out of three practices last week before he was still able to play against the Panthers. If he is unable to go, third-year lineman DeAngelo Tyson would likely receive the start at the 5-technique defensive end spot.
Though both are listed as doubtful and not officially out just yet, left tackle Eugene Monroe (knee surgery) and defensive tackle Timmy Jernigan (meniscus) will not play against the Colts.
Third-string tight end Phillip Supernaw is listed as questionable after being limited with a thigh injury during Friday’s practice. He was not on the injury report earlier this week, making it possible he suffered the injury in the final workout of the week before the Ravens travel to Indianapolis on Saturday.
Cornerback Chykie Brown (neck) and running back Bernard Pierce are listed as probable as are tight end Owen Daniels and wide receiver Steve Smith, who both received the day off from practice on Thursday.
Meanwhile, Indianapolis officially ruled out former Ravens defensive lineman Arthur Jones, who has been sidelined for a few weeks with a high ankle sprain.
Here is the final injury report of the week:
BALTIMORE
