Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill missed Wednesday’s practice due to personal reasons, according to the team’s injury report. Notably, Hill was absent from Tuesday’s injury report.
Justice Hill, the Ravens’ second running back behind Derrick Henry, is having a career-best season in his sixth year. The Oklahoma State alum has recorded 198 rushing yards and a touchdown but has truly shined as a receiver, tallying 42 receptions for 383 yards and three touchdowns. In Sunday’s victory over the New York Giants, Hill caught five passes for 61 yards and a touchdown, while also delivering the Ravens’ longest kickoff return of the season with a 59-yard effort to start the game.
Three additional players were absent from the Ravens’ Wednesday practice: wide receiver Nelson Agholor (concussion), cornerback Jalyn Armour-Davis (hamstring), and wide receiver Diontae Johnson, who has been excused from team activities for the week.
Four starters were limited participants, including wide receiver Rashod Bateman (foot), guard Daniel Faalele (knee), outside linebacker Odafe Oweh, and safety Ar’Darius Washington (ankle). Notably, Bateman and Oweh are new additions to the injury report, and their potential absence could significantly impact the team’s lineup.
On a positive note, three rookies were listed as full participants: outside linebacker Adisa Isaac (hamstring), safety Sanoussi Kane (hamstring), and cornerback T.J. Tampa (ankle), with Tampa aiming for a return from injured reserve.
The Ravens are gearing up to host the Pittsburgh Steelers in a critical AFC North matchup on Saturday. The showdown at M&T Bank Stadium kicks off at 4:30 p.m. ET.
