Justice Hill Justice Hill Coach optimistic for return in 2025
Fri, Dec 19, 2025, 12:42 PM
Head coach John Harbaugh said Friday that Hill (neck) coming back in Week 17 against the Packers or Week 18 against the Steelers is a "real possibility."
Analysis: Hill will miss a fourth consecutive game while on injured reserve Sunday against the Patriots, but the change-of-pace running back could be back before the conclusion of the regular season. Keaton Mitchell and Rasheen Ali have mixed in behind Derrick Henry during Hill's absence. |

Lamar Jackson Lamar Jackson Full reps in return to practice
Thu, Dec 18, 2025, 3:53 PM
Jackson (illness) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: The Ravens held Jackson out of their first practice of the week Wednesday while he contended with a flu-like illness, but the quarterback took every rep a day later to clear up any concern about his health heading into Sunday's game against the Patriots. Though Jackson has now gone six consecutive weeks without a full slate of practices, he said Thursday that he feels that he's bounced back well from the illness and characterized his absence Wednesday as being "just another rest day," per Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. |

Lamar Jackson Lamar Jackson Back at practice Thursday
Thu, Dec 18, 2025, 12:44 PM
Jackson (illness) was on the field for practice Thursday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Jackson didn't practice Wednesday, but the star quarterback's return to the field Thursday puts him on track to be available Sunday against the Patriots. The Ravens' second practice report of the week will be released later Thursday and will reveal the extent of his participation in the session. |

Rashod Bateman Rashod Bateman Logs full practice
Wed, Dec 17, 2025, 3:41 PM
Bateman (ankle) was a full participant in practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Bateman is thus set to return for Sunday's matchup with New England, after missing the Week 15 win at Cincinnati. His availability leaves less playing time for fellow wideouts DeAndre Hopkins and Devontez Walker, neither of whom has done much with Bateman bothered by various injuries in the second half of the season. |

Lamar Jackson Lamar Jackson Absent due to illness
Wed, Dec 17, 2025, 2:03 PM
Jackson missed Wednesday's practice due to flu-like symptoms, Cordell Woodland of 105.7 The Fan Baltimore reports.
Analysis: Ravens coach John Harbaugh didn't sound too concerned, but it's perhaps worth noting that Jackson has missed an unusual amount of time (mostly practices) due to illnesses throughout his career. The good news for Baltimore is that Jackson got sick early in the week, giving him at least four full days to recover before the Ravens face the Patriots on Sunday night. |

Charlie Kolar Charlie Kolar Goes without target in Week 15
Wed, Dec 17, 2025, 1:40 PM
Kolar went without a target while playing 21 of the Ravens' 41 snaps on offense in Sunday's 24-0 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Though his 51 percent offensive snap share was his highest rate since Week 3, Kolar went without a target for just the third time in 12 games on a day in which quarterback Lamar Jackson attempted just 12 passes. Kolar will have a chance at seeing more pass-game involvement on the occasions that the Ravens aren't sitting on big leads, but he'll still be third in line for targets at tight end behind Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely. |

Lamar Jackson Lamar Jackson Not practicing Wednesday
Wed, Dec 17, 2025, 12:40 PM
Jackson (undisclosed) wasn't spotted at Wednesday's practice, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Jackson was rested last Wednesday before returning to a full session Thursday, and there's a solid chance that pattern will be be repeated this time around. The Ravens' upcoming injury report will note whether or not that's case, or if the QB is managing an injury issue ahead of Week 16 action. |

Rashod Bateman Rashod Bateman Back at practice
Wed, Dec 17, 2025, 12:39 PM
Bateman (ankle) is participating in Wednesday's practice, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Bateman will likely be limited Wednesday, but it's encouraging to see him back on the practice field after he missed Baltimore's win over the Bengals in Week 15. He was added to the injury report as limited last Thursday then missed practice entirely Friday. Bateman's production has been disappointing in 2025, as across 11 regular-season appearances he's tallied just 18 catches for 217 yards and two scores on 36 targets. |

Isaiah Likely Isaiah Likely No targets Sunday
Mon, Dec 15, 2025, 11:02 AM
Likely was not targeted Sunday against the Bengals.
Analysis: Likely's usage was surprising Sunday given that he had been playing better of late, including his five-catch, 95-yard game against the Bengals in Week 13. There were some factors working against Likely, though. Baltimore ran just 40 plays and possessed the ball for 20 minutes. Further, Lamar Jackson only attempted 12 passes as the team leaned on the ground game. Likely played 50 percent of the snaps, which is in line with his usual percentage, but he was not able to draw one of the few targets that were available Sunday. The Ravens host the Patriots on Sunday Night Football in Week 16. |

DeAndre Hopkins DeAndre Hopkins Makes splash play on one catch
Mon, Dec 15, 2025, 10:11 AM
Hopkins caught his lone target for a 32-yard gain Sunday against the Bengals.
Analysis: The veteran wideout did not get a significant bump in snaps despite Rashod Bateman (ankle) being sidelined. Still, Hopkins made his one target count with a big 32-yard catch-and-run that helped set up a Baltimore touchdown. In all, he played just 13 offensive snaps for the second week in a row. Hopkins and the Ravens host the Patriots on Sunday Night Football in Week 16. |

Rasheen Ali Rasheen Ali Reaches end zone in victory
Sun, Dec 14, 2025, 7:59 PM
Ali caught both of his targets for 32 yards and a touchdown while adding a 32-yard kickoff return in Sunday's 24-0 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Ali finished second on the team in both catches and receiving yards, most notably turning a short reception into a 30-yard touchdown in the second quarter. The running back appears to have carved out a solid role for himself in the passing game, reeling in four of five targets for 43 yards and a score over the last two contests. Ali remains behind Derrick Henry and Keaton Mitchell on the depth chart, but he may garner more opportunities moving forward. |

Keaton Mitchell Keaton Mitchell Eight totes in victory
Sun, Dec 14, 2025, 7:49 PM
Mitchell rushed the ball eight times for 66 yards while failing to reel in his only target in Sunday's 24-0 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Mitchell was able to garner a season-high eight totes, finishing second on the team in rushing yards behind Derrick Henry (100) while averaging an impressive 8.3 yards per carry. The running back has now combined to produce 142 yards and a touchdown on 14 carries over the last two games, and he'll look to keep it up in Week 16 against the Patriots. |

Mark Andrews Mark Andrews Just two grabs in Week 15 win
Sun, Dec 14, 2025, 3:35 PM
Andrews caught two of three targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 24-0 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: The Ravens defense dominated, which didn't leave much for Lamar Jackson and the passing attack to do. Andrews has caught two or fewer passes in three of the last four games, managing just an 8-83-0 line on 17 targets over that stretch, and his struggles have largely been tied to Jackson's own lack of production. The duo may need to re-establish their connection in Week 16 against the Patriots to keep Baltimore's playoff hopes alive. |

Zay Flowers Zay Flowers Hauls in first TD since Week 1
Sun, Dec 14, 2025, 3:28 PM
Flowers caught three of five targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-0 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Lamar Jackson ended up attempting only 12 passes on the day as the Ravens defense dominated, but one of those tosses went for a 28-yard TD to Flowers in the second quarter. It was the third-year wideout's first trip to the end zone since Week 1, but it continued a productive stretch for Flowers that has seen him top 60 yards in six of eight games since Baltimore's bye while compiling a 37-536-1 line on 54 targets. Flowers will likely be a little busier in Week 16 against the Patriots. |

Lamar Jackson Lamar Jackson Tosses two TDs against Cincy
Sun, Dec 14, 2025, 3:21 PM
Jackson completed eight of 12 passes for 150 yards and two touchdowns with one interception in Sunday's 24-0 win over the Bengals. He added 26 rushing yards on two carries.
Analysis: With the Ravens' defense putting together a dominant effort, Jackson didn't need to do too much more after finding Rasheen Ali and Zay Flowers for TDs in the second quarter. It's the first time Jackson has tossed multiple touchdowns since Week 9, as he'd stumbled to a 2:4 TD:INT over his prior five games, but a matchup against Cincinnati's woeful defense wasn't exactly a tough test. The two-time MVP will need to stay sharp in Week 16 against the Patriots if the Ravens are going to stay in the AFC playoff picture. |

Derrick Henry Derrick Henry Rumbles for 100 in win
Sun, Dec 14, 2025, 3:17 PM
Henry carried the ball 11 times for 100 yards in Sunday's 24-0 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: It's the fifth time this season Henry has reached the century mark in rushing yards this season, but his 11 totes were by far his lowest volume in any of those performances, as he posted three runs of over 20 yards in the third quarter to help put the game away. Henry is gaining momentum once again late in a campaign, and over the last three games he's averaging 5.5 yards per carry. The veteran back will look to keep rolling in Week 16 against the Patriots as the Ravens scramble to try and remain in the playoff picture. |

Cooper Rush Cooper Rush Emergency QB for Week 15
Sun, Dec 14, 2025, 10:41 AM
Rush (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Ravens' emergency third quarterback against the Bengals on Sunday.
Analysis: As the emergency third quarterback, Rush is prohibited from playing Sunday unless both Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley were to leave the game due to injury, illness or ejection. Rush last played in Week 6 against the Rams, which coincided with Jackson's three-game absence due to a hamstring injury. |

Rashod Bateman Rashod Bateman Inactive Sunday
Sun, Dec 14, 2025, 10:37 AM
Bateman (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Analysis: Bateman was added to the Ravens' Week 15 injury report after being a limited participant in Thursday's practice and then missing Friday's session before heading into the weekend listed as questionable for Sunday's contest. In his absence, DeAndre Hopkins, Tylan Wallace, Devontez Walker and LaJohntay Wester are candidates to log increased snaps behind top wide receiver Zay Flowers. |

Mark Andrews Mark Andrews Clear for Week 15
Fri, Dec 12, 2025, 3:02 PM
Andrews (glute) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at Cincinnati.
Analysis: Andrews showed up on the Ravens' Week 15 injury report Thursday as a limited practice participant due to a glute injury, but after getting back to all activity one day later, he's in the clear ahead of the weekend. Since he scored his last touchdown Week 11 at Cleveland, he's managed just a 6-65-0 line on 14 targets and recorded two carries for two yards over the last three contests, but facing a Bengals defense that has been the most yielding to opposing TEs in all statistical categories this season may aid in a bounce-back effort Sunday. |

Rashod Bateman Rashod Bateman Officially questionable for Week 15
Fri, Dec 12, 2025, 2:59 PM
Bateman (ankle) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Analysis: Ravens coach John Harbaugh said Friday that Bateman is still "fighting through" a lingering ankle sprain, and that the team will make a decision about his availability on Saturday. If Bateman isn't able to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup, all of DeAndre Hopkins, Tylan Wallace, Devontez Walker and LaJohntay Wester will be candidates to benefit from increased snaps behind top wide receiver Zay Flowers. |
