Humphrey (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans.

Like a number of other Ravens starters, Humphrey was injured in last Sunday's loss to the Chiefs and is looking at an extended absence. Keyon Martin covered the slot for Baltimore following Humphrey's injury against Kansas City.

Walker (oblique) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans.

Walker popped up on Wednesday's practice report as a DNP due to an oblique injury. Even with the questionable tag, he was able to end the week on a strong note with a full practice Friday, which has him trending in the right direction for Sunday's AFC contest. Walker has three catches on as many targets for 60 yards and two touchdowns across four regular-season games.

Hamilton (groin) did not practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans.

The Ravens' defense will be depleted for Sunday's game with Chidobe Awuzie (hamstring), Marlon Humphrey (calf) and Roquan Smith (hamstring) all ruled out. Even with the questionable tag, Hamilton is leaning more towards the doubtful side of things given that he wasn't able to practice Thursday and Friday, though his official status may not be known until about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Reuben Lowery and Sanoussi Kane have seen limited playing time on defense this season, but both would be candidates to start at safety alongside Malaki Starks if Hamilton is unable to play.

Autry (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Baltimore.

Autry opened the regular season on the reserve/PUP list due to lingering knee injury from the 2024 campaign. His practice window to return from the PUP list opened Wednesday, but he's not quite ready to make his 2025 debut after putting together an LP/LP/DNP practice log. Autry will have additional time to rest due to the Texans being on a bye for Week 6, which puts him in a better spot to make his regular-season debut in Week 7 against the Seahawks on Monday, Oct. 20.

Awuzie (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans.

Awuzie played a season-high 92 percent of the Texans' defensive snaps last Sunday against the Chiefs but is now yet another injured Baltimore defensive starter. Nate Wiggins, Jaire Alexander, T.J. Tampa and Keyon Martin should see increased reps at cornerback.

Reed (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Reed was designated to return from IR on Wednesday and ended the week on a high note with a full practice Friday. However, the rookie sixth-rounder is not quite ready to make his NFL regular-season debut, and with the Texans on a bye Week 6, his next opportunity to do so will be Week 7 against the Seahawks on Monday, Oct. 20.

Smith (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans.

Smith suffered a Grade 2 hamstring strain last Sunday against the Chiefs and is expected to miss multiple weeks. Trenton Simpson and Jake Hummel are expected to see increased defensive reps against Houston.

Fatukasi (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Fatukasi was unable to practice all week due to a shoulder injury he likely picked up during the Texans' Week 4 win over the Titans, and he'll be in street clothes for Sunday's road contest. Tim Settle and Tommy Togiai should see an uptick in rotational snaps at defensive tackle in Fatukasi's absence.

Stingley (oblique) was a full participant in Friday's practice and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Stingley opened the week with a DNP on Wednesday due to an oblique issue, but the fourth-year corner has been cleared to play Sunday after steadily increasing his practice participation over the course of the week. The 2022 first-rounder has 10 tackles (nine solo) and four pass defenses (including one interception) through the first four games of the regular season.

Burke was a limited participant in Friday's practice due a knee injury, and he is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.

The injury appears to be a new one, as Burke popped up on Friday's practice report due to a knee issue. The severity of the injury isn't clear, but the rookie fifth-rounder appears to be in jeopardy of missing his first game of the regular season. If Burke and fellow rookie Will Johnson (groin) are both unable to play, Max Melton and Elijah Jones would be in line to serve as the Cardinals' starting outside corners in Sunday's home clash.
