Ravens activate T.J. Tampa from IR, CB will play vs. Bills

The Baltimore Ravens activated cornerback T.J. Tampa from injured reserve and elevated offensive lineman Chuma Edoga and outside linebacker Adisa Isaac from the practice squad. All three will be available to play the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.

Tampa, 24, went down with a knee injury on his fifth special teams snap of Week 1. He returned to practice in Week 7 and progressed to full participation this week. The third-year cornerback will add depth on the boundary to a secondary that has been scrambling for answers in recent weeks. Marlon Humphrey and Nate Wiggins have dominated the available outside snaps with only occasional rotational looks for Chidobe Awuzie. Tampa figures to remain fourth in the pecking order initially, but his skillset might be a fit for Jesse Minter’s zone scheme.

Edoga and Isaac will fortify the Ravens in the trenches on either side of the ball right guard Vega Ioane (knee) and outside linebacker Tavius Robinson (pectoral) sidelined on Sunday. This is Edoga’s third elevation; to appear in another game for Baltimore this season, he must be signed to the active roster.

Isaac made his season debut last week but only appeared on special teams. Unless he earns a role on defense, the Ravens might be more inclined to use up Kaimon Rucker’s practice squad elevations before giving either an active roster spot.
