When the Ravens go to Cincinnati for a crack at a Bengals team that swept them last year en route to a division crown, the Ravens need all hands on deck in the hopes of pulling out a win.
As to one key player, he may be available. Or maybe not.
The official injury report is out, and linebacker Ray Lewis is questionable with a foot injury.
Assuming that’s accurate, there’s a 50-50 chance Lewis will play. (We’ll put our money on the 50-percent chance he’ll play.)
Also questionable are defensive tackle Terrence Cody (knee), linebacker Tavares Gooden (thigh), tight end Todd Heap (thigh), linebacker Jarret Johnson (back), and linebacker Jameel McClain (knee). Out, as expected, are right tackle Jared Gaither (back) and receiver Donte’ Stallworth (foot).
Probably for the Ravens are receiver Anquan Boldin (thigh) and receiver Marcus Smith (knee).
For the Bengals, defensive end Jonathan Fanene (hamstring) is out. Running back Brian Leonard (foot) and linebacker Keith Rivers (foot) are questionable. Running back Cedric Benson (shoulder), receiver Andre Caldwell (groin), and cornerback Brandon Ghee (head) are probable.
