BALTIMORE RAVENS NEWS

Derrick Henry - Set for lead role in Ravens debut Henry is set to lead Baltimore's backfield Thursday against the Chiefs despite not playing in the preseason, Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official site reports.

Impact Henry will be making his Ravens debut Thursday, and Baltimore understandably didn't want to add any unnecessary tread to the 30-year-old running back's tires during the preseason after he handled 1,529 regular-season carries over the past five seasons with the Titans, leading the NFL in rushing attempts four times in that span. Justice Hill figures to fill a change-of-pace role behind Henry on Thursday in a Baltimore backfield that may not have any other options with Keaton Mitchell (knee) on the PUP list and Rasheen Ali (neck) listed as doubtful.

Adisa Isaac - NFL debut put on hold Isaac (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Chiefs.

Impact Isaac was unable to practice in any capacity throughout the week leading up to Thursday's regular-season opener, but he'll have 10 days to recover before the Ravens host the Raiders in Week 2. The 2024 third-round draft pick avoided starting the season on IR, which suggests that the team believes he'll be ready to play within the first four weeks of the season.

Rasheen Ali - Doubtful for Week 1 Ali (neck) is listed as doubtful for Thursday night's season opener against the Chiefs.

Impact With Ali trending toward inactive status Thursday, the Ravens' Week 1 backfield depth behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill is currently taxed. The team does, however, have the option to elevate John Kelly or Chris Collier from the practice squad to address that.

Rasheen Ali - Another limited practice Ali (neck) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, Cordell Woodland of 105.7 The Fan Baltimore reports.

Impact Ali will have one more chance to increase his rep count in Wednesday's practice, after which point the Ravens will have to tag him with an injury designation for Thursday's regular-season opener against the Chiefs. The rookie fifth-round pick has cleared the concussion protocol, but he's still working his way back from a stinger sustained during Baltimore's preseason opener.

Mark Andrews - Cleared for Thursday Andrews (undisclosed) is not listed on the Ravens' injury report ahead of Thursday night's season opener against the Chiefs.

Impact Andrews, who was involved in a car accident Aug. 14, was back at practice Friday, and with his name not listed on Monday's practice/injury report, the tight end is in line to be available to face Kansas City in Week 1. As long as he can stay healthy this coming season, Andrews will remain a key receiving target for QB Lamar Jackson, along with top WRs Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman, a context that keeps him firmly in the weekly fantasy lineup mix.
