The Baltimore Ravens' second injury report for Week 3 is live, and defensive tackle Nnamdi Madubuike was noncommittal about playing against the Dallas Cowboys.

The Baltimore Ravens have released their second injury report ahead of their Week 3 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. 

While it has been established that both wide receiver Zay Flowers and offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley missed their second practice, there is some good news in terms of players being upgraded.

The full injury report is as follows:

One of the best pieces of news for the Ravens is that both linebacker Teddye Buchanan and defensive tackle Nnamdi Madubuike have now practiced in full for a second straight day.

What is a bit odd about the situation is that Madubuike was seemingly noncommittal about being able to take the field against the Cowboys. While he continues to practice in full, it could be that he does not want to promise he will be able to take the field if he cannot fully do so.

Per Ravens reporter Ryan Mink, Madubuike simply stated he is "working" his way towards a return.

"I'm working out every day to continue to keep getting better. So, you know, we'll see. But I'm in a good place and coaches feel so too, so just taking just one day at a time. But I feel great," Madubuike said.

Maybe it is a case of Madubuike not wanting to overpromise his chances of finally taking the field, but the injury report points to his being able to make his 2026 debut.

Two additional bits of good news are that left guard John Simpson and outside linebacker Zion Young were also upgraded to full participants.

Simpson is dealing with a groin injury and was limited on Wednesday, but now he has been given a full practice day, which bodes well for the team's offensive line.

Similar to Simpson, Young was also upgraded from a limited participant to a full participant, as he is currently dealing with a quad injury.

Fellow outside linebacker Trey Hendrickson did not practice on Wednesday, but was upgraded to limited on Thursday. Despite being limited, he could also be ready to play in Brazil.

Wide receiver Chris Moore has remained limited due to an ankle injury, and safety Malaki Starks also remains limited due to a hamstring injury.

Veteran defensive tackle Calais Campbell was given a vet rest day, hence his missing practice on Wednesday. Now, he has been upgraded to a full participant.

The third and final injury report will reveal more about who is truly in danger of missing Week 3. 

As it currently stands, Flowers and Stanley remain two that are unlikely to play. 

If Moore, Starks, and Hendrickson remain limited, all three might also be in danger of missing the game. However, being limited throughout the week does not necessarily mean that a player will be unable to take the field.

Hendrickson is dealing with a broken finger, but he was able to play against the Saints while utilizing a cast on the affected hand.
