Marlon Humphrey

Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey was a non-participant in Wednesday’s practice due to a groin injury.

Fantasy Impact

The severity of the injury is not yet known. Thursday and Friday reports should give clearer indication of his status for Sunday’s game against the Chiefs. Anthony Averett would see more playing time if Humphrey sits.

Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Panthers.

Fantasy Impact

Humphrey missed Week 7 with the same injury and was unable to practice throughout the week.

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey is approaching elite status in his second year, according to Ravens.com

Fantasy Impact

Humphrey, a first-round pick out of Alabama last year, faces a big test going against Green. The corner earned the third-highest PFF grade in Week 1 among NFL cornerbacks. Green was targeted three times and made no catches going against Humphrey in the teams' 2017 Week 17 matchup, according to the article. Humphrey likely will not provide IDPers a ton of tackles because of his shut-down ability, but the matchup against Green will be interesting to watch.

Baltimore cornerback Marlon Humphrey is listed behind starters Jimmy Smith and Brandon Carr on the Ravens' first official depth chart.

Fantasy Impact

Humphrey, the 16th overall pick in the 2017 draft, is expected to climb the depth chart as training camp progresses and eventually passing Carr would not be a surprise. IDPers should continue to monitor this situation.

The Ravens have signed CB Marlon Humphrey, LB Tyus Bowser, OL Nico Siragusa, OL Jermaine Eluemunor, and S Chuck Clark, leaving just their two third-round picks unsigned.

Fantasy Impact

Humphrey and Clark will both add depth to the Ravens' secondary, with Humphrey likely to see extensive action behind Jimmy Smith and Brandon Carr. Bowser was added to help with arguably their biggest issue on defense, pass rush. With Elvis Dumervil out, he'll likely compete for the starting spot opposite Terrell Suggs. Those three could add enough for this defense to be a reliable fantasy pickup, especially with so few trustworthy defenses. Siragusa and Eluemunor are both expected to play guard, adding depth to the position. The Ravens' offensive line was one of the best just a few seasons ago, but they have lost starters over the years. No one is set to start opposite Marshal Yanda, so it is possible one or even both of these rookies could see plenty of playing time.
