Ravens' Devontez Walker: Back at practice
Rotowire
Walker (ribs) participated in practice Tuesday, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Walker, who has been managing a rib issue, didn't practice Monday, but the 2024 fourth-rounder's return to the field a day later bodes well for his chances of seeing action in Saturday's preseason finale against the Packers. As the regular season approaches, Walker is looking to carve out a steady role as a rookie in a WR corps that also includes veterans Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman and Nelson Agholor.

Ravens' Devontez Walker: Bothered by ribs
Rotowire
Coach John Harbaugh said Walker's lack of playing time in a preseason win over Atlanta on Saturday was related to a rib injury, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
The rookie fourth-round pick has only one target and no receptions through two preseason games and doesn't seem to have gotten any snaps before halftime. This perhaps mitigates concern about Walker's progress, but it does seem he's headed for a lower spot on the depth chart to start the season, likely behind Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman and Nelson Agholor at the very least.

Ravens' Devontez Walker: Just one target in preseason opener
Rotowire
Walker failed to bring in his only target in Friday's 16-13 preseason loss to the Eagles.
The Ravens sat out most of their top offensive personnel, including quarterback Lamar Jackson and wideouts Zay Flowers, Nelson Agholor and Rashod Bateman (undisclosed), but Walker still didn't see his only target until the third quarter and couldn't connect with No. 3 QB Devin Leary on the pass. Walker, a fourth-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, will look for a chance to make a bigger impact in a Saturday, Aug. 17 exhibition against the Falcons, but his usage in the Ravens' preseason opener doesn't suggest he'll have a big role when the regular season begins.
