Nick Boyle Could See Uptick In Chances

Baltimore Ravens tight end Nick Boyle caught three of four targets for 24 yards in Week 16's win over the Cleveland Browns. If Mark Andrews is held out for Week 17, Boyle could see an uptick in targets, but it's hard to predict who fill-in quarterback Robert Griffin III will be primarily looking for in […]

Willie Snead Too Inconsistent To Trust

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Willie Snead was held without a catch in Week 16's win over the Cleveland Browns. Snead hasn't had a game with over 15 yards receiving in the second half of the season and is hard to trust for your starting lineups. Snead did catch four balls for 51 yards against the […]

Justice Hill To Be More Involved In Week 17

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill rushed for 19 yards and a touchdown on three carries in Week 16 against the Cleveland Browns.

Mark Ingram Officially Ruled Out

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram (calf) has officially been ruled out for Week 17 against the Steelers. Ingram suffered a calf strain in Week 16, and he'll be rested until the Divisional Round of the playoffs.

Mark Andrews, Marquise Brown Questionable

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (ankle) and rookie wide receiver Marquise Brown (illness) are both questionable for Week 17 against the Steelers. The Ravens have already locked up home-field advantage for the AFC playoffs, so Andrews and Brown will play limited snaps in the regular season finale, if they even play at all. Cornerbacks […]
