The biggest concern for the Ravens entering the final week of the regular season is illness.
That’s what kept four players out of practice on Tuesday, with left tackle Ronnie Stanley, left guard Patrick Mekari and defensive tackle Nnamdi Madubuike all missing the final practice of the calendar year. Linebacker Justice Hill, who has not practiced or played since suffering a concussion in a Dec. 21 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, was also out with an illness that was added to his list on the first injury report of the week.
Wide receivers Nelson Agholor (concussion) and Rasheen Ali (hip) both return, with Agholor a full participant and Ali limited.
Charlie Kolar (forearm), who was designated to return from injured reserve on Monday, was also a full participant, while cornerback Jalyn Armour-Davis (hamstring) did not practice again.
That means Baltimore (11-5) should be in good shape for Saturday’s Week 18 game against the Browns (3-13) at M&T Bank Stadium. A win would seal the AFC North title and secure the Ravens as the No. 1 seed. 3 in the conference entering the postseason, guaranteeing them at least a wild card game at home.
Cleveland, on the other hand, is on the opposite end of the spectrum when it comes to health.
Running backs Jerome Ford (ankle) and Pierre Strong (concussion), defensive ends Myles Garrett (thigh) and Cameron Thomas (back), linebacker Jordan Hicks (concussion), defensive end David Njoku (knee) and cornerback Denzel Ward ( shoulder) all missed practice on Tuesday.
Six other players were limited for the Browns: quarterbacks Dorian Thompson-Robinson (calf) and Jameis Winston (right shoulder), safety Grant Delpit (shoulder/knee), defensive end Ogbo Okoronkwo (knee), defensive end Blake Whiteheart (knee) and wideout receiver Michael Woods (knee).
