The Baltimore Ravens are preparing for their Week 16 game at home against the Atlanta Falcons. The Ravens need to win in order to keep pace with the Cincinnati Bengals if they want to have a shot of winning the AFC North title. If the season ended today, the Ravens would be playing in the Wild Card round against the Tennessee Titans.
Baltimore announced five roster moves to start the week ahead of Week 16. First, they designated inside linebacker Josh Ross to return from the injured reserve, and is now back at practice. This gives him a 21-day window where he would need to be added to the 53-man roster.

Two other moves that the Ravens made were signing wide receiver Mike Thomas to the practice squad and releasing guard Zach Johnson from the practice squad. Thomas might get a call up from the practice squad depending on the availability of some of the receivers on the active roster.

Finally, Baltimore brought back an old friend in wide receiver Sammy Watkins, who they claimed off of waivers from the Green Bay Packers while placing wide receiver Devin Duvernay on injured reserve with a foot injury that he suffered in practice.
