Friday's injury report

Offensive tackle Jared Gaither is the only Ravens player listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Gaither, who has missed practice this week with a neck injury, has already been labeled as a game-time decision by coach John Harbaugh.

 

Linebacker Jarret Johnson (left shoulder) and cornerback Chris Carr (groin) were upgraded to full practice Friday and are probable. Joining them as probable are wide receivers Derrick Mason (neck) and Demetrius Williams (illness), free safety Ed Reed (knee), defensive tackle Haloti Ngata (back), and linebacker Tavares Gooden (shoulder).

 

Mason and Williams were limited in practice.

 

A pair of Bengals defensive starters in linebacker Rey Maualuga (knee) and defensive tackle Domata Peko (chest) were upgraded to full practice from limited participation and are probable for Sunday.

 

Running back Cedric Benson (hip) and strong safety Roy Williams (fractured forearm) are probable. Defensive tackle Tank Johnson (plantar fasciitis in foot) is questionable.

It would be huge for Flacco if Tank is off his game due to the foot problem. That would mean no double team on Tank...free up the line... so Odom can't get that 1 on 1 that has helped him get his sacks.

When was Tank Johnson every considered anything more than an average player? By no means do I think he constitutes a double team. Peko is the much better player.
