OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Right guard Marshal Yanda returned to the practice field Thursday as the Ravens continued preparations for their Monday night game against the New Orleans Saints.
The three-time Pro Bowl selection sat out Wednesday’s practice as Baltimore worked out in full pads. He had been nursing a knee injury prior to the bye week, but the Ravens did not have to release an injury report until Thursday. Yanda was listed as a limited participant on the first injury report of the week.
Wide receiver Michael Campanaro (hamstring) and offensive lineman Jah Reid (hand) both remained sidelined on Thursday, creating even more doubt for their availability in Week 12. Campanaro hasn’t played since the Oct. 26 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals while Reid broke his hand a few days before the Tennessee game.
Tight end Owen Daniels and linebacker Daryl Smith weren’t practicing after receiving the day off as they periodically do on Thursdays.
The Ravens are practicing inside their field house all week due to the cold temperatures outside and Monday’s game being played at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.
The Saints continue to deal with injury concerns in their secondary as starting cornerback Keenan Lewis (knee) did not practice on Thursday. The former Pittsburgh Steelers defensive back was limited last week before playing 10 snaps in the loss to Cincinnati.
Starting inside linebacker (ankle) and return specialist Travaris Cadet (hamstring) was also absent from practice on Thursday.
Below is the official injury report for Thursday:
