Earl Thomas out of practice Wednesday
The Ravens are feeling bullish
about their chances of beating the Patriots on Sunday night, but that confidence might take a hit if the team has to play without safety
Earl Thomas.
That possibility wasn’t on the radar until the team released their injury report after Wednesday’s practice. Thomas did not participate in the session and a knee injury was given as the reason for his inactivity.
Baltimore had a bye last week and Thomas last appeared on an injury report on Wednesday of Week Seven. He was out of practice that day as well, but the Ravens said the reasons were not related to injury.
Cornerback
Jimmy Smith was limited with the knee injury that’s kept him out since Week One, but he said earlier in the day that he is ready to play this weekend. Wide receiver Hollywood Brown (ankle), cornerback
Maurice Canady (hamstring) and linebacker
Patrick Onwuasor (ankle) drew the same listing.
