Report: OL Marshal Yanda passed his physical and removed from PUP list

The Ravens received good news on Saturday morning as offensive lineman Marshal Yanda has been removed from the PUP list as he passed his physical.Yanda suffered a season-ending ankle injury in week two against the Browns last season Youth Lamar Jackson Jersey , but he was not on the PUP list due to that injury. He started training camp on the PUP list due to a shoulder injury. Yanda had offseason surgery on his shoulder, which forced him to miss the first couple of weeks of training camp. He did not return to the field on Saturday as the Ravens will likely ease him into action, but this is indeed a positive development. Yanda will bring stability to the offensive line. He is considered one of the best guards in football right now. Pro Football Focus has consistently graded him in their top 10 of all guards over the past couple of seasons, and that should not change in 2018. When he returns, the offensive line position battles will continue to heat up as James Hurst will be able to compete for the starting right tackle and left guard spots. However, given how well Orlando Brown Jr. has looked in training camp and in the first preseason game, Hurst’s best shot at being a starter is at left guard.It appears there will be a three-man competition for two spots: center and left guard. Alex Lewis, Matt Skura and Hurst will all be under a microscope for the next upcoming month as Baltimore will be deciding who will be the starters. Not to mention Jermaine Eluemunor could factor into that competition. He was extremely impressive during the Hall of Fame Game as he only allowed one pressure, per Pro Football Focus. The Ravens are set to hold joint practices with Los Angeles next week leading up to their preseason game, which should be a good test for Baltimore as the Rams have a stout defensive front. QUARTERBACKS:START: Ryan Fitzpatrick, Tampa Bay BuccaneersMatchup: vs. RedskinsWeek 9 Stats: 4 Passing TD, 243 Passing YDS, 2 INT http://www.ravensauthorizedshops.com/authentic-willie-snead-iv-jersey , 23 Rushing YDS, 24 PTSThe Fitzmagic is back, Ryan Fitzpatrick delivered last week against Carolina, throwing for four touchdowns in a nail-biting defeat. This week he faces a Redskins’ defense that has struggled defending the deep ball all season and has allowed opposing QB’s to run rampant. This one could get going right at the jump for the former Harvard star, and look for him to put up one of his best showings of 2018.Jeremy Brevard-USA TODAY SportsSIT: Matt Stafford, Detroit LionsMatchup: @ BearsWeek 9 Stats: 199 Passing YDS, 1 Fumble, 6.6 PTSAfter being sacked ten times on Sunday afternoon, Matt Stafford now faces the the preeminent pass rush in the NFC North. Stafford has only amassed 20 FPTS twice this season. The trade of Golden Tate has sapped the Lions’ offense. This is not the week to start the former number one pick.Brad Rempel-USA TODAY SportsRUNNING BACKS:START: Aaron Jones, Green Bay PackersMatchup: vs. Dolphins Week 9 Stats: 76 Rushing YDS, 2 Receptions, 10 Receiving YDS, 1 Fumble Alex Collins Jersey , 8.6 PTSAfter being given the reins to the ground game, Aaron Jones is ready to put the league on notice against a putrid Dolphins defense that has allowed the fourth most RB FPTS this season. After losing a fumble on Sunday Night Football that decided the Packers’ fate, I’m expecting an onslaught from both Aarons this Sunday, and Jones becomes a must-start option.Stew Milne-USA TODAY SportsSIT: Leonard FournetteMatchup: @ ColtsLeonard Fournette is expected to return this Sunday after missing six of the Jaguars’ past seven contests. With the addition of Carlos Hyde to the running back corp in Jacksonville, I don't expect Doug Marrone to throw the former LSU star right back into the fire, and expect him to bring him back gradually to preserve his health going into the remainder of the season.Douglas DeFelice-USA TODAY SportsWIDE RECEIVERS:START: Tyler Boyd, Cincinnati Bengals Matchup: vs. SaintsWith A.J. Green sidelined for the foreseeable future, Tyler Boyd becomes the top option on the outside for Andy Dalton. The Saints have allowed the most FPTS to receivers this season and while I don't expect Andy Dalton to air it out any more than usual, Boyd gets a boost after two weeks of prepping for this matchup during the Bengals’ bye.Aaron Doster-USA TODAY SportsSIT: Corey Davis, Tennessee Titans Matchup: vs. PatriotsWeek 9 Stats: 6 Receptions, 56 Receiving YDS, 12 PTSThe former first round pick has caught less than 50% of his targets over the past three contests. It doesn't help Corey Davis’ fantasy value that he is constantly shadowed by the opposing teams’ best cornerback. Already this season he’s matched up against Jalen Ramsey, Tre’Davious White Authentic Patrick Onwuasor Jersey , Casey Hayward, and this week he gets to see Stephon Gilmore. I’m keeping him on the bench this week and going forward.Tim Heitman-USA TODAY SportsTIGHT ENDS:START: George KittleMatchup: vs. GiantsWeek 9 Stats: 4 Receptions, 108 YDS, 1 TD, 20.8 PTSGeorge Kittle is one of only three tight ends this season to post 20-plus FPTS in three or more outings. He has become one of the elite options at the position in only his second season. Look for him to light it up on Monday Night Football before the 49ers go into their bye week.Kyle Terada-USA TODAY SportsSIT: Jared Cook, Oakland RaidersMatchup: vs. ChargersWeek 9 Stats: 2 Receptions, 20 YDS, 4 PTSJared Cook’s early season explosion has subsided and he has turned into the largely boom-or-bust option that most people expected him to be coming into the season. With the questions concerning the Raiders at the quarterback position, none of their offense skill players should be trusted going down the stretch unless their is a major shift in production.Kyle Terada-USA TODAY SportsTHURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL: Carolina Panthers @ Pittsburgh SteelersPanthers:Cam Newton: StartChristian McCaffrey: Start Devin Funchess: FlexD.J.
