Reserve cornerbacks Maulet (knee) and Jalyn Armour-Davis (concussion) were both ruled out.

That could allow Rock Ya-Sin to see snaps, or for Damarion Williams to make his 2023 debut, while stud rookie wide receiver Zay Flowers is questionable for the second straight week.

Ravens news: Lamar Jackson dominating defenses from the pocket; Kyle Hamilton addresses disrespect

Lamar Jackson is dominating from the pocket, Kyle Hamilton is not feeling the 11-3 disrespect and more Baltimore Ravens news ahead of 49ers showdown

Monday night’s massive showdown in San Francisco between the Ravens (11-3) and 49ers (11-3) will feature two teams that share the NFL’s best record, but like the College Football Playoffs, some pundits are treating John Harbaugh’s team like the Florida State Seminoles.

Baltimore is a 5.5-point underdog, and some pundits don’t believe the matchup will be close.

With the final preparation for Monday night underway, we’re looking at some Friday morning Ravens news, including a deep dive into Lamar Jackson’s ability to dominate and dismantle opposing teams inside or outside the pocket.

Roquan Smith says he’d take the Ravens 10-10 times in response to being underdogs to 49ers

Roquan Smith on the Ravens being an underdog to the 49ers: “I’m betting on us 10 times out of 10 — 11 if you want to add one.”

The Ravens (11-3) and 49ers (11-3) are set for a heavyweight showdown on Monday night in a Christmas evening extravaganza.

Despite being dominant for most of this season, Baltimore will enter the matchup as an almost touchdown underdog on the road.

During his Wednesday session with the media, the always talkative Roquan Smith said he’d take his team “10 out of 10 times — and 11 if you want to add one.”

Christian McCaffrey averages 116.8 rushing yards per game for San Francisco over his last four, while Deebo Samuel will also enter the contest on a hot streak.

Smith and Patrick Queen offer a dynamic and elite counter to what the 49ers like to do.

Smith enters the matchup with a team-high 142 total tackles (79 solo), 5 TFL, and 4 QBHs through the first 14 games of the season.

That stat makes Roquan Smith one of four defensive players in the league with at least 140 tackles, 3 TFLs, and 3 QBHs in 2023.

Christian McCaffrey and Trent Williams threw it back to 2008 with their MTV nicknames for each other

“Let me tell you ’bout my best friend.”

Christian McCaffrey and Trent Williams must start creating content together immediately.

The San Francisco 49ers are humming right now. Brock Purdy is doing Brock Purdy things, and the team is headed for the playoffs. After taking down the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, the 49ers are tied, at 11-3, with the Baltimore Ravens for the NFL’s best record.

That’s got to make guys like Christian McCaffrey and Trent Williams feel pretty darn good, so good that when Williams was called up to the podium during a post-game presser, he called his buddy, McCaffrey, up with him.

Then, McCaffrey proceeded to drop one of the best MTV history references to describe their relationship.
