The Ravens looked better defensively last week, but now Roquan Smith's injury is a concern

Baltimore Ravens safety Kyle Hamilton (14) reacts after teammate cornerback Marlon Humphrey (44) intercepted a pass in the end zone by the Pittsburgh Steelers during the second half of an NFL football game, Sunday, Nov. 17, 2024, in Pittsburgh.

Roquan Smith missed practice again Friday because of a hamstring injury. Although the Ravens didn't officially rule him or anyone else out -- they don't play until Monday night -- the All-Pro linebacker's status seems dicey.
