Denver Broncos starting safety P.J. Locke (thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Baltimore Ravens. Devon Key is expected to start in Locke’s place against the Ravens.

Elsewhere on the injury front, right tackle Mike McGlinchey (knee) fully participated in Friday’s practice session and he’s been cleared to play.

Meanwhile, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (back/knee) returned to practice on Friday after sitting out on Wednesday and Thursday. Jackson told reporters in Baltimore that his status for Sunday was “never in doubt.” The QB said sitting out two days this week was “just resting my body.” Jackson was not given a game status designation on Friday, so he is officially cleared to play.
