Roquan Smith OUT vs. Chargers

Roquan Smith OUT vs. Chargers

Ravens LB Roquan Smith is inactive for tonight's game against the Chargers. That leaves Trenton Simpson as the likely lead LB for Baltimore and Malik Harrison elevated to the No. 2 slot. Harrison has officially started 28 games across 4.5 NFL seasons but never posted enviable numbers. He's only an emergency IDP option.

Ravens LB Roquan Smith left Sunday's loss to the Steelers with a hamstring injury. He was ruled out before the end of the game. That doesn't bode well for his Week 12 outlook, but we'll watch for status updates this week.

Ravens LB Roquan Smith sat out Wednesday's practice with a shoulder injury. We didn't see any report of the issue coming out of Sunday's win over the Lions. Smith did play 89% of snaps as opposed to his usual 100%. But so did four other usual full-timers before leaving the blowout victory early. We'll track Smith's status through the week.

The Ravens are acquiring LB Roquan Smith from the Bears for 2nd- and 5th-round NFL Draft picks. Smith is in the final year of his rookie contract, so we'd bet on an extension with Baltimore following. His arrival likely means the end of full playing time for Ravens LB Patrick Queen. They'll likely start together, but the move for Smith signals dissatisfaction with the middle of the defense. Queen has become a full-timer this season after seeing 80% and then 76% the previous 2 seasons. Smith's departure from Chicago leaves tackle upside for LB Nicholas Morrow, who was already playing full-time snaps. Joe Thomas stands 3rd among Bears LBs in playing time currently and might be the top candidate to absorb vacated snaps.

Update: The Ravens are also sending LB A.J. Klein to the Bears, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. He'll likely get at least a shot at stepping into Smith's vacated role.
