ExtremeRavens Posted September 24 Posted September 24 The Ravens enter a pivotal week with a troubling list of absences. Defensive tackle Nnamdi Madubuike (neck), outside linebacker Kyle Van Noy (hamstring), defensive linemen Broderick Washington and Travis Jones, fullback Pat Ricard (calf) and left tackle Ronnie Stanley were all missing from the open portion of Wednesday’s practice in Owings Mills. The severity of Madubuike’s injury is not immediately clear. The two-time Pro Bowl selection did not practice last week before being ruled out of Monday night’s 38-30 loss to the Detroit Lions in which Baltimore surrendered 224 rushing yards. Van Noy is expected to miss some time with the hamstring injury he suffered in Week 2 against the Cleveland Browns. Ricard hasn’t practiced since Aug. 14. On Wednesday, the Ravens signed veteran defensive linemen Taven Bryan and Josh Tupou to their practice squad to help bolster a defensive front that has been plagued by injuries. Baltimore (1-2) faces the defending AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs (1-2) and Patrick Mahomes on Sunday afternoon at Arrowhead Stadium. Stanley, Washington and Jones are new absences after practicing last week and playing against the Lions. Coach John Harbaugh is scheduled to speak to reporters later this afternoon and an official injury report will be released later. This article will be updated. Have a news tip?
