Cleveland Browns vs. Baltimore Ravens Injury Report and Odds

This is the first matchup between AFC North division rival Cleveland Browns and Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens lead the series 34-12, but the Browns won the team's last matchup against each other 24-22.

Cleveland Browns- SIC Score 83.6

The Browns have two OL that hasn't practiced at all this week. Pro Bowl guard Wyatt Teller has a calf strain that has caused him to miss multiple practices this week. Teller has been ruled out ahead of the Sunday matchup. 

Backup offensive tackle Joe Haeg is still in concussion protocol and is unlikely to play.

The Browns DBs will miss their highest-paid CB this weekend with Denzel Ward not clearing concussion protocol in time to play in the team's game this Sunday. Ward is expected to miss multiple weeks with this concussion since he's suffered numerous head injuries. Look for Lamar Jackson to target Brown's backup corners.

Baltimore Ravens- SIC score 72.6

Superstar TE Mark Andrews didn't practice on Wednesday or Thursday this week with knee soreness. He did practice today in a limited capacity and is ruled as questionable. He will warm up pre-game to test the knee.

But another Raven's pass-catcher, Rashod Bateman, should be returning after missing the team's last two games with a foot injury. He practiced for the first time since week four as a limited participant. Bateman could take advantage of a hurt Browns DB unit.

Two players in the Ravens backfield are unlikely to play this weekend, with the most doubtful being RB J.K Dobbins. He has battled a knee injury since returning from his torn ACL and MCL. Dobbins has been ruled out this week.

His lead blocker, Patrick Ricard, is also battling a knee bruise and only practiced one day this week. He has been ruled as questionable heading into this divisional game.

Two veterans OL for the Ravens are questionable to play this week. The first is starting right tackle Morgan Moses, who has battled a heel injury. He practiced in a limited capacity on both Thursday and Friday. Second is guard Ben Cleveland who has a foot injury. Cleveland has practiced to a limited degree the last two days.
