OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Hitting the practice field for the first time since the news of the Haloti Ngata suspension, the Ravens were again without starting wide receiver Torrey Smith on Thursday.
The fourth-year wideout continues to nurse a sore right knee that isn’t expected to keep him out of Sunday’s game against the Miami Dolphins. However, it remains unclear how close to 100 percent he will be as the Ravens desperately need a win over Miami to stay in good position in a crowded AFC wild-card race.
“The only way I’m not going to play is if I need crutches,” Smith said. “I’m good to go. We’ll see what happens, but hopefully everything works out.”
Wide receiver Marlon Brown (concussion) returned to the practice field while running back Justin Forsett (knee) made a brief appearance during the media viewing portion before returning to the indoor facility adjacent to the practice fields. Forsett downplayed the extent of his injury on Wednesday, describing it as general soreness, but he was once again listed as a non-participant on the official injury report.
Players missing from practice also included tight ends Owen Daniels and Crockett Gillmore (back), center Jeremy Zuttah (ankle), linebacker Daryl Smith, and defensive lineman DeAngelo Tyson. Daniels and Smith received a veteran day off on Thursday while Tyson was summoned for jury duty.
Gillmore was a limited participant during Wednesday’s practice.
Cornerback Asa Jackson (turf toe) continues to practice and eyes a return from the injured reserve-designated to return list this Sunday. The Ravens currently have 52 players on their active roster with Ngata being moved to the reserve-suspended list, so they could elect to use his roster spot to activate Jackson.
“You can’t really tell out here in practice until the bullets start flying if he’s back to where he was,” defensive coordinator Dean Pees said. “But he seems to be moving well and doing fine. I think he’ll really help us back there, at least basically in the slot.”
There were no changes to Miami’s injury report from the previous day except for the addition of linebacker Chris McCain (ankle) as a limited participant.
Below is Thursday’s full injury report:
