The Ravens have lost 24-year old KR/WR David Reed for the rest of the season due to a torn ACL.  Reed played in 11 games for the Ravens this year and he didn’t catch any passes but he did carry the ball 1 time for 16 yards.  He also had 4 tackles and he returned 18 kickoffs for 534 yards (29.7 avg) this year.  Reed has now played in 24 games in his first two years with the Ravens and he has carried the ball 2 times for 31 yards (15.5 ypc).  He also has returned 39 kickoffs for 1,150 yards (29.5 avg) with 1 TD return and he has 14 tackles and 2 forced fumbles.  The Ravens are really going to miss Reed on special teams going forward.

The Ravens will be without 31-year old WR Anquan Boldin for the last two games of the regular season due to minor knee surgery.  He should be ready to play in the Ravens’ first playoff game.  Boldin played in 14 games for the Ravens this year and he caught 57 passes for 887 yards (15.6 avg) with 3 TD grabs.  He has now played in 30 games in his first two years with the Ravens and he has caught 121 passes for 1,724 yards (14.3 avg) with 10 TD grabs.  30-year old Lee Evans will replace Boldin in the starting lineup.  He has been a huge disappointment for the Ravens so far this year.  Evans has played in 7 games for the Ravens so far this year and he has caught 4 passes for 74 yards (18.5 avg).

The Baltimore Ravens have lost 26-year old starting CB Lardarius Webb for the next few weeks due to a toe injury.  Webb has played in 13 games for the Ravens so far this year and he has 62 tackles, 14 passes defensed, 4 interceptions (one returned for a TD), 1 sack, 1 tackle for a loss and 1 forced fumble.  The Ravens are likely going to turn to 23-year old rookie Jimmy Smith to replace Webb in the starting lineup.  He has played in 9 games for the Ravens so far this year and he has 6 tackles, 6 passes defensed and 2 interceptions.

The Ravens have waived 27-year old linebacker Prescott Burgess with an injury settlement.  He has a torn abdominal muscle.  Burgess played in 3 games for the Ravens this year and he had 3 tackles.  Burgess has now played in 40 games in his first four years with the Ravens and he has 38 tackles.  This isn’t much of a loss for the Ravens as Burgess wasn’t likely to be ready to play any time soon.

The Ravens have placed 27-year old LB Prescott Burgess on the Injured Reserve List, ending his season due to an abdomen injury.  Burgess played in 3 games for the Ravens this year and he had 3 tackles.  He has now played in 40 games in his first four years with the Ravens and he has 38 tackles.  This will hurt the special teams way more than the defense for the Ravens.

The Baltimore Ravens have placed 28-year old cornerback Domonique Foxworth on the Injured Reserve List due to a knee injury.  He played in 2 games for the Ravens this year and he had 2 tackles.  Foxworth has now played in 18 games in his first two years with the Ravens and he has 55 tackles, 2 tackles for a loss, 1 fumble recovery, 16 passes defensed and 4 interceptions.

The Ravens have lost 24-year old kick returner David Reed for the next 3-6 weeks due to a shoulder injury.  Reed returned 3 kickoffs for 125 yards (41.7 avg) for the Ravens last weekend in his season debut.  FB Vonta Leach and CB Lardarius Webb replace him in the season opener when he was suspended, but, it’s more likely that either rookie WR Torrey Smith or rookie WR LaQuan Williams will replace Reed going forward.

The Baltimore Ravens have lost two of their top three cornerbacks for the next few weeks due to injury.  Jimmy Smith has a high ankle sprain and Chris Carr had a hamstring injury.  Smith started at corner against the Steelers last Sunday but he was injured before he made any tackles.  Chris Carr played Sunday against the Steelers and he had 1 tackle before getting injured.  With Cary Williams & Lardarius Webb now starting at corner, look for the Ravens to look for some free agents to bring in to compete for bench roles.

The Ravens have placed 24-year old OT Ramon Harewood on the Injured Reserve List due to a torn ankle ligament.  Harewood played in 3 games (1 start) in the preseason for the Ravens and he was injured in the finale against the Falcons.  This will be Harewood’s second year in the NFL and he will have spent them both on the Injured Reserve List without playing a down for the Ravens.

The Ravens have lost 24-year old rookie long snapper Morgan Cox for the rest of the year due to a torn ACL.  Cox played in 15 games for the Ravens this year.  The Ravens will now need to find another snapper and they hope they can find a good one with the playoffs coming up because they won’t be able to afford leaving any points on the field.
