The Baltimore Ravens have released the second injury report for their Week 5 road contest against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the biggest news of the day for the current AFC North leaders centered on Morgan Moses’ return to practice.

Moses, who has not missed a game since the 2014 season, came away from the Ravens’ road win against the Cleveland Browns with a shoulder injury. Ravens head coach John Harbaugh downplayed the severity of Moses' injury on Monday, noting that the team does not believe that the 10th-year veteran is dealing with a "long-term type" ailment. The veteran offensive lineman went on to be a limited participant in practice on Thursday.

It is looking like Ronnie Stanley will receive the green light to play against the Steelers, especially as he was cleared to be a full participant in practice for the second consecutive day. He noted after Baltimore’s second practice session of the week that there is a "strong possibility" he will suit up on Sunday.

The Ravens are also keeping a close watch on the injury statuses of three other players on the offensive side of the ball. Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) and Justice Hill (hamstring, foot) each were listed as a limited participant in practice on Thursday due to their respective injuries. On the other hand, wideout Rashod Bateman, who is nursing a nagging hamstring ailment, featured in the entirety of practice on the day.

Over on defense, Ravens linebacker Odafe Oweh and safety Daryl Worley are not trending in the right direction to play against Pittsburgh. Oweh continues to deal with an ankle injury suffered in Baltimore’s Week 2 win over the Cincinnati Bengals, while Worley remains on the sidelines due to a shoulder injury.

Ravens defensive backs Marcus Williams (pec) and Jalyn Armour-Davis (hamstring) each were listed as a full participant in practice on Thursday.

Finally, Marlon Humphrey, who underwent foot surgery in August, practiced in a limited capacity on Thursday. Harbaugh is hopeful that the versatile cornerback will soon make a return to in-game action.

"Well, he's been working super hard," Harbaugh said during a press conference on Wednesday. "It's one of those things where it's just a matter of the healing process in there taking place in the bone or whatever. 

"So, it looks good. We'll see what happens. We just have to see how it responds to the workload — that's the main thing right now."
