- Sep 20 Jeff Zrebiec (unofficial mirror bot, Bluesky) Vorhees was active last week and Emery Jones Jr. was a healthy scratch. Their roles are reversed this week.

- This would mean the Ravens will have 6 inactives. Zay Flowers, Nnamdi Madubuike and Teddye Buchanan have already been declared out. Joe Fagnano will be emergency No.3 QB. So Ravens will need 2 more. Ronnie Stanley, John Simpson and Trey Hendrickson are all questionable. · Quoting Jeff Zrebiec: Ravens officially rule out WR Zay Flowers (hamstring). CB T.J. Tampa (knee) is placed on I.R. He’ll miss at least four games. ILB Carl Jones added to 53-man roster.
