Humphrey was able to log three consecutive limited practices leading up to Sunday's game, but did not progress enough to be ready to suit up. It will be his second missed game in a row and he'll aim to return after the bye against the Rams on Dec. 10. Ronald Darby is set to fill in as the starting corner opposite Brandon Stephens in Humphrey's absence.

Humphrey was able to log three consecutive limited practices leading up to Sunday's game, but did not progress enough to be ready to suit up. It will be his second missed game in a row and he'll aim to return after the bye against the Rams on Dec. 10. Ronald Darby is set to fill in as the starting corner opposite Brandon Stephens in Humphrey's absence.
Humphrey was listed as a nonparticipant on all three of the Ravens' practice reports this week after he suffered a strained calf in this past Sunday's loss to the Browns. The Ravens aren't likely to take any chances with Humphrey on a short week, but the team may wait until early Thursday to re-evaluate him before formally deciding on his status upon the release of the inactive list 90 minutes prior to the game's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. Assuming Humphrey sits out Thursday, the Ravens' top three cornerbacks will likely be Brandon Stephens, Rock Ya-Sin and Arthur Maulet.
Humphrey is dealing with a strained calf that isn't expected to be a long-term issue. The Ravens are on a short week, however, as they face the division-rival Bengals on Thursday night. Humphrey has two more days to get ready for a potential battle with Ja'Marr Chase.
It was initially feared that Humphrey suffered a strained Achilles, so the diagnosis represents good news for him. Baltimore's practice reports over the week will give a better idea of whether he might be able to get back to 100 percent in time for Thursday's game versus the Bengals.
Humphrey was tended to by trainers on the field and walked off gingerly before entering the medical tent on the sidelines, according to Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com. He is considered questionable to return.
