The Baltimore Ravens are 1-0 after beating Houston 25-9 in Week 1, but it is hard for fans to get too excited because of all of the injuries that occurred throughout the game and even leading up to the game.
A team that has struggled to stay healthy has once again struggled to stay healthy, and now it faces pressing decisions to make as soon as possible.
So, what are the most recent updates on these players and what do they mean? Here is our breakdown of the latest information shared by John Harbaugh on the Ravens' injured players.
6. Could the Baltimore Ravens get Marlon Humphrey back this week?

The Ravens elected not to place him on the injured reserve, which meant that they expected him to play within the first four weeks of the season. So, we could see Humphrye eased back into the practice sessions this week with eyes on week three.

However, this week you may see Stephens and Darby start, with Ya-Sin shuffled in for Darby.
