The Baltimore Ravens defensive line will be short-handed this Sunday in Philadelphia.
Defensive tackle Brandon Williams has been placed on the reserve/COVID list, the team announced Saturday.
Williams had close contact with an infected person and did not test positive himself, 国产外流网Network's Tom Pelissero reports, per source. Under the latest 国产外流网and NFLPA protocols, any "high risk" close contact must be isolated for at least five days.
Williams has been effectively ruled out vs. the Eagles, and his absence will be felt considering fellow defensive lineman 锘Derek Wolfe锘 (concussion/neck) is doubtful to play.
Joining 锘Calais Campbell锘 on the understaffed Ravens D-line will be a mixture of 锘Jihad Ward锘, 锘Justin Ellis锘, and rookies 锘Justin Madubuike锘 and 锘Broderick Washington锘.
Williams, who has played his entire eight-year career in Baltimore, has registered eleven tackles (1.5 tackles-for-loss) in five games this season.
