Injury Updates Entering Training Camp
The Ravens are mostly healthy as they are set to hold their first training camp practice next week.
Getting Smith healthy was a top priority this offseason, and he looked like his old self during offseason practices. Smith wasn't quite 100 percent during minicamp last month, but he was healthy enough to participate with the first-team defense in team drills. That's a good sign for training camp.
The veteran tight end is the biggest question mark on the injury front. He's still awaiting medical clearance to fully return to practice and is reportedly expected to start camp and the season on the physically unable to perform list, which would knock him out the first six games of the season.
The second-year safety has made significant progress from last year's season-ending knee injury. Brooks was somewhat of a surprise during offseason practices when he proved to be ahead of schedule by participating in 11-on-11 drills. It's unknown if he'll be full-go when camp opens, but the offseason practices were a good sign.
The starting right tackle didn't practice at all during the offseason as he recovered from a season-ending foot injury. Wagner's target return date has been training camp, and there have been no reported setbacks during his recovery process.
Lewis-Moore is back to full strength after suffering a torn Achilles during last year's training camp. He practiced throughout the offseason program and will be on the field when camp opens next week. The Ravens have high hopes for Lewis-Moore, who is hoping to stay healthy after serious injuries his first two seasons.
Urban missed all of last season after tearing his ACL in training camp, but he's back to 100 percent as camp begins. He practiced throughout the offseason and will hope to carve out a role for himself during training camp.
The inside linebacker had wrist surgery after a stellar rookie season, and he spent offseason practices on the sideline. The wrist surgery is not expected to put Mosley in danger of missing any games, so he will likely be practicing in some capacity when camp begins.
The second-year receiver missed the offseason practices because of a thigh injury, but the hope is for him to return to the field at the start of training camp. Competition is tight at the receiver position, making the training camp reps critical for Campanaro.
The starting center didn't practice during the offseason as he recovered from a reported hip procedure. There has been no indication that the hip issue is a long-term concern, and the Ravens plan to have Zuttah back in the starting lineup for training camp.
