The Baltimore Ravens’ front seven was stretched extremely thin during their Week 3 over the Detroit Lions, as the team had to place defensive linemen Brandon Williams and Justin Madubuike on the Reserve/COVID-19 list, as well as outside linebackers Justin Houston and Jaylon Ferguson. It was reported that Ferguson had tested positive for COVID-19, and it appears that Williams, Maubuike and Houston were most likely all close contacts in some way.
On Wednesday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reported that the Ravens activated three players from the Reserve/COVID-19 list in Williams, Madubuike and Houston, giving Baltimore much needed reinforcements on their front seven.
Ravens activate DL Brandon Williams and Justin Madubuike and OLB Justin Houston from Reserve/Covid-19 list. All three missed Sunday’s game in Detroit after being close contacts. They should be ready to play vs Broncos.

As Zrebiec notes, all three players will be eligible to play in the Ravens’ Week 4 matchup with the Denver Broncos. Ferguson was the only player out of the four not activated, and unless he gets taken off of the list in the next few days, he might not be available for Sunday in Denver.
