NICK BOYLE
Nick Boyle Placed on Injured Reserve, Delaying Return Tight end Nick Boyle returned to practice last week, but is now back on the shelf.
Remains sidelined Boyle (knee) wasn't present for Thursday's practice, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Previous reports suggested that the tight end was unlikely to be available for Week 1 action, so Boyle's absence from practice isn't surprising. If he's unavailable for Monday night's season opener against the Raiders, Eric Tomlinson and Josh Oliver would be in line to serve as Mark Andrews' backups.

Off PUP list Boyle (knee) has been removed from the PUP list, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The report relays that coach John Harbaugh noted earlier Monday that Boyle is "getting close" but was unlikely to be ready for Week 1 action. However, activating Boyle off the PUP list implies that the Ravens expect the tight end to play sometime within the first six weeks of the regular season.

Could miss start of season Though Boyle (knee) is getting closer to a return, he's not likely to be ready for the start of the regular season, according to Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com.
Impact Boyle is currently on the preseason PUP list, so the Ravens will have to make a call in short order whether or not to tag the tight end with an early-season injury designation. Either way, Boyle's fantasy utility is limited as long as teammate Mark Andrews is available.

May be ready for Week 1 Coach John Harbaugh said that Boyle (knee) may be available for Week 1, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Impact However, Harbaugh did decline to offer any specific information about Boyle's chances of suiting up Week 1, saying that the tight end will "be back as soon as he can be." Still, it's encouraging to see that Boyle hasn't been ruled out for the regular-season opener. The 28-year-old is coming off a season-ending injury that involved damage to both his MCL and PCL.

Recovering from minor surgery Boyle recently had a clean-up procedure on his knee and could miss "a chunk" of the preseason, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Boyle suffered a season-ending knee injury last November and was previously expected to be ready for training camp, but he apparently dealt with a setback of some kind. Backup tight ends Eric Tomlinson and Josh Oliver should get more in-line reps on the practice field while Boyle focused on rehab in the coming weeks. None of the bunch is any threat to Mark Andrews' role as a pass catcher.

Starts camp on PUP list Boyle (knee) was placed on the PUP list Thursday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Boyle is working his way back from season-ending MCL, PCL and hamstring injuries, and though he's expected to be ready for Week 1, he won't be on the field for the start of training camp. Once healthy, Boyle stands to spend the final year of his contract handling a key blocking role while fellow tight end Mark Andrews takes most of the pass-catching reps.

Ravens Agree to Two-Year Contract Extension With Nick Boyle Baltimore is keeping tight end Nick Boyle through the 2023 season, showing their commitment after he suffered a season-ending knee injury.
JANUARY 29, 2021 • BALTIMORERAVENS.COM
Signs contract extension Boyle (knee) signed a two-year extension with the Ravens on Friday.
Impact Entering the third and final season of his first contract extension, Boyle is now signed with Baltimore through 2023. Once he's finished rehabbing from his season-ending knee injury, Boyle should occupy his usual spot as the blocking complement to pass-catching ace Mark Andrews. Ravens coach John Harbaugh said Boyle should be ready for the start of training camp, as the injury the tight end suffered Week 10 didn't include an ACL tear.

Ravens offseason priorities begin with improving pass attack
Instead of preparing the Baltimore Ravens for another playoff game this week, coach John Harbaugh has started looking ahead toward the 2021 seasonJANUARY 20, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Should be ready for 2021 Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Wednesday that he expects Boyle (knee) to be ready for training camp this summer, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Boyle suffered a season-ending knee injury Week 10, sustaining damage to his MCL, PCL and hamstring. He avoided an ACL tear, so his rehab process should be wrapped up before the Ravens take the field for Week 1 of 2021. Boyle caught just 14 passes in nine 2020 appearances, but he averaged 42.2 snaps per game and tied for the 10th-best run-blocking grade out of 71 qualified tight ends, per Pro Football Focus. Boyle has one season remaining on a three-year, $18 million contract, and he's scheduled for a non-guaranteed $5.5 million base salary in 2021.

Injury details emerge Boyle is dealing with injuries to his MCL, PCL and hamstring, leading to his placement on season-ending injured reserve, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Impact Boyle avoided any damage to his ACL, but the rest of his knee suffered severe damage. The Ravens believe the 27-year-old will bounce back, but they haven't indicated whether they're confident he'll be ready for the 2021 season. Luke Willson and/or Sean Culkin likely will be promoted from the practice squad to take over Boyle's blocking role.
