For the Patriots, linebacker Robert Spillane has been ruled out due to an ankle injury after not participating in practice. Defensive tackle Christian Barmore is listed as questionable with a knee issue and did not participate in Friday’s practice. Cornerbacks Carlton Davis III (hip) and Marcus Jones (knee), along with linebacker Harold Landry (knee), were limited participants and are also questionable for Sunday’s game. Linebacker Christian Elliss was a full participant on Friday despite illness and does not carry a game status designation.
On the Ravens’ side, linebacker Teddye Buchanan will miss the game because of a knee injury, while linebacker Jay Higgins IV is also out but was able to fully participate in practice. Cornerback Chidobe Awuzie is doubtful with a foot injury after being limited in practice. Safety Kyle Hamilton (ankle), defensive tackle John Jenkins (illness), and tackle Ronnie Stanley (knee/ankle) are all listed as questionable; Hamilton and Stanley were limited participants, while Jenkins did not participate.
Several Ravens players practiced fully on Friday despite previous injuries or illnesses, including wide receivers Rashod Bateman (ankle) and Zay Flowers (neck), safety Keondre Jackson (ankle), quarterback Lamar Jackson (illness), center Tyler Linderbaum (knee), defensive tackle C.J. Okoye (quad), linebacker Roquan Smith (knee), and outside linebacker Kyle Van Noy (quad). None of these players have been given a specific game status.
Practice participation levels indicate whether players took part fully or partially during sessions this week, with bolded names marking changes from previous days’ reports. The designations “out,” “doubtful,” and “questionable” clarify each player’s likelihood of playing: “out” means they will not play, “doubtful” indicates they are unlikely to play, and “questionable” means it is uncertain if they will be available.
