ExtremeRavens Posted January 28 Posted January 28 The Ravens are playing their first AFC championship game at home, and they enter it about as healthy as they have been all season. Notably, tight end Mark Andrews, who was activated off injured reserve this week after undergoing ankle surgery in November, and cornerback Marlon Humphrey, who suffered a calf injury in Week 17 against the Miami Dolphins and hasn’t played since, are both active for Baltimore’s 3 p.m. showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs. The Ravens, however, will be without wide receiver Tylan Wallace (knee) and linebacker Del’Shawn Phillips (shoulder), both of whom are inactive. To fill their roles on special teams, the Ravens elevated recently signed receiver Dan Chisena and inside linebacker Josh Ross from their practice squad Saturday. The Ravens’ other inactives are cornerback Rock Ya-Sin (knee), guard Sala Aumavae-Laulu, center Sam Mustipher and quarterbacks Malik Cunningham and Josh Johnson, who will be Baltimore’s third/emergency quarterback. The Chiefs, meanwhile, are without a few key players, notably All-Pro left guard Joe Thuney (pectoral) and defensive tackle Derrick Nnadi (triceps), both of whom were ruled out Friday. Starting linebacker Willie Gay (neck) was also made inactive Sunday. Kansas City is also without two of its wide receivers: Skyy Moore (knee), who was ruled out Friday, and Kadarius Toney (hip). Toney, who welcomed a daughter Saturday night and hasn’t played in the past five games, said the Chiefs are lying about his injury. The 25-year-old went on an expletive-filled rant on his Instagram on Sunday, saying that he isn’t hurt. Other inactives for the Chiefs include cornerbacks Keith Taylor and Ekow Boye-Doe and defensive ends BJ Thompson and Felix Anudike-Uzomah. View the full article Quote
