One star preparing for Sunday's Ravens-Patriots game was a surprise no-show at practice Friday. Another left practice early.
Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco exited practice Friday because of a sore hip, according to multiple reports in Baltimore.
According to the Twitter account of old PFT scribe Aaron Wilson, Flacco isn't concerned.
"It's a little stiff, but it feels good. I got a little bruising," Flacco said. (We can hear a certain Michael Scott phrase arriving in the comments.)
"It feels great right now. I just got to make sure it stays that way on Sunday."
Jim John Harbaugh says Flacco will be fine for Friday's game. And look for him to get a workout.
The Patriots are likely to use every resource possible towards slowing down Ray Rice, making a streaky Flacco beat them in cold conditions.
