The Ravens have a bye week to heal following Sunday's victory, but at least one player will be out for an extended period.
Third-year cornerback Anthony Averett suffered a shoulder injury that will keep him out of action for weeks. Head Coach John Harbaugh said the injury was not season-ending, but that Averett would be placed on the injured list.
"He's going to be out five or six weeks," Harbaugh said. "He has a slight fracture in one of the bones, clavicle, shoulder, somewhere in there. [There will] be some sort of an IR there. It won't be season-long."
Harbaugh said cornerbacks Khalil Dorsey and practice squad player Terrell Bonds would have an opportunity for increased reps due to Averett's absence.
"I'm very confident in Khalil," Harbaugh said. "He's playing really well in practice and he's playing well on special teams. Terrell Bonds is another guy who's in the mix there. He'll get his opportunity. Those guys are ready to roll."
The news on other Ravens injured Sunday was more positive. Harbaugh said running back Mark Ingram II (ankle) might be back when the Ravens return to action Nov. 1 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
"I think he probably will be back for the Steelers game," Harbaugh said. "We'll have to see."
Defensive lineman Derek Wolfe (neck/concussion) is progressing nicely and the hand injury to starting right guard Tyre Phillips is not serious.
"Derek Wolfe had a concussion protocol Wednesday in practice," Harbaugh said. "He says he feels great. Tyre Phillips had the hand, I don't think it's anything serious."
Nose tackle Brandon Williams (Reserve/COVID-19 list) missed Sunday's game, but Harbaugh is optimistic Williams will be back soon.
"He never tested positive," Harbaugh said. "It was a close contact. He'll be fine."
