Unfortunate injuries have been painful for the Baltimore Ravens in the last couple of seasons, and as of this week it hopes to return rookie cornerback Marlon Humphrey to practice.
After starting training camp with two interceptions during the week of July 28, an undisclosed injury has limited the former University of Alabama standout from participating in drills. Ravens’ head coach John Harbaugh has not released details; however, he did state via the team’s social media handle that Humphrey’s injury is “day-to-day.”
CB Marlon Humphrey has missed a few days of practice and Coach Harbaugh said he's "day-to-day" right now.

A native of Hoover, Ala., Humphrey did not miss any time at Bryant-Denny Stadium – as he collected 81 tackles, 13 pass breakups and five interceptions throughout his three-year career. The 6-foot, 197-pounder was selected by the Ravens at No. 16 overall in this year’s NFL Draft; the highest Tide player to come off the board during the event. Hopefully, he is able to recover and return to making plays in camp as Baltimore anticipates having a strong season.
