Seattle Seahawks defensive end Ezekiel Ansah (ankle) and left tackle Duane Brown (biceps) are both inactive for Week 7 against the Ravens.

Marquise Brown Inactive Against Seattle

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Seahawks.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Michael Badgley (groin) has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Titans. Badgley has returned to practice but isn't yet ready to make his season debut.

Kerryon Johnson, Darius Slay Questionable To Return

Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson (knee), cornerback Darius Slay (hamstring) and defensive tackle Damon Harrison (undisclosed) were all injured in Week 7 against the Vikings and are questionable to return.
