News & Notes: Key Ravens Injury Updates As They Enter Bye

As the Ravens begin a much-needed bye week, Head Coach John Harbaugh went through a checklist of injury updates on their banged-up roster.

Outside linebacker Tavius Robinson suffered a broken foot in the Ravens' 17-3 loss to the Los Angeles Rams Sunday, but the good news is that it wasn't a season-ending injury.

Harbaugh estimated that Robinson should be able to return in six to eight weeks, similar to tight end Isaiah Likely's timeline during training camp.

The Ravens' other injured players all have a chance to return after the bye. That list is led by Lamar Jackson (hamstring), who Harbaugh is [expecting to play in Week 8 against the Chicago Bears](https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/lamar-jackson-return-injury-status-ravens-john-harbaugh-rams-bye-week).

"If I was on the couch with a psychiatrist right now, if I was spilling it, I would have to say I'm leaning really hard into that," Harbaugh said.

Left tackle Ronnie Stanley, who has either not played or exited early in the last three games, should benefit from extra time to rehab his injured ankle. It's the same ankle Stanley has long had health challenges with, and it has forced Joe Noteboom into the lineup.

"\[The ankle is\] structurally good or he wouldn't be out there playing," Harbaugh said. "It becomes a matter of his ability to perform on it. The only person that knows that is the player, so you've got to go by that. But he's fighting to get out there and play. … Having Ronnie Stanley out there is a big deal. It's a really, really big deal."

The Bears game was also the target for fullback Patrick Ricard (calf), but that's in doubt after Ricard had a couple of limited practices last week.

"It's pretty much recovered from that kind of standpoint. It's just a matter of him being comfortable with his level of strength and his ability to perform," Harbaugh said. "It's him being able to get out there and push himself through practice and feel like it's going to stay healthy – to move and run and change direction and power into people. It's really up to him."

Harbaugh was not asked about linebacker Roquan Smith (hamstring), but Smith was seen getting in a workout before practice last week.

Cornerback Marlon Humphrey went down in pain with about three minutes left in Sunday's game, but Harbaugh said he came out of the game without an injury.
