The Baltimore Ravens enter Week 9 as one of the most injury-riddled teams in the league. Despite the injury woes, Baltimore has been good at finding players to fill the void.
On Friday, the Ravens released their final injury report of the week ahead of this Sunday’s matchup with the Minnesota Vikings. Many players listed did not participate in practice, but the team may have one receiver return this weekend while also potentially losing another for the second time this season.

After not practicing this week, running back Latavius Murray (ankle) and Patrick Mekari (ankle) are doubtful for Sunday.
A new face on the injury report this week is wide receiver Rashod Bateman (groin). He is questionable after not participating in practice on Friday. Both wide receiver Sammy Watkins (thigh) and defensive tackle Brandon Williams (shoulder) were limited in team activities on Friday and are questionable for Sunday.
Defensive lineman Derek Wolfe also didn’t practice for the third-consecutive day, and head coach John Harbaugh said that Wolfe wouldn’t play on Sunday, as his back isn’t feeling good.

Closing out the injury report is quarterback Tyler Huntley who has been fighting an illness all week but is expected to be the backup while defensive end Calais Campbell and outside linebacker Pernell McPhee were given a day of rest.
