The Baltimore Ravens elevated veteran quarterback Tyler Huntley and defensive tackle C.J. Okoye from the practice squad to the active roster for tomorrow’s game vs. the Houston Texans at M&T Bank Stadium. The Ravens’ inactive list for Sunday is essentially set with Lamar Jackson, Pat Ricard, Roquan Smith, Marlon Humphrey, and Chidobe Awuzie all ruled out.
Kyle Hamilton, Odafe Oweh, and Devontez Walker are also questionable.
Seven players, including five Pro Bowlers, didn’t practice Friday. That list did not include defensive tackles Nnamdi Madubuike (neck) and Broderick Washington Jr. (ankle), who went on injured reserve last week.

Backup quarterback Cooper Rush will make his first start as a Raven. He’s well prepared with 14 starts and a 9-5 record.
Jaire Alexander, T.J. Tampa, and Keyon Martin could see extended snaps with Marlon Humphrey and Chidobe Awuzie not expected to play.
