The Ravens got back Jaylen Hill last week and that helped with the cornerback rotation with Jimmy Smith still dealing with a lingering Achilles injury. I still expect him to play tonight but will get a lot of rotation work with rookies Marlon Humphery and Brandon Carr on the outside.

Carr has impressed and tied for second with three interceptions and Humphery has shown flashes as a rookie. But receivers like Jarvis Landry, Kenny Stills, and potentially DeVante Parker (if he plays with an ankle injury) are no joke as a young core of receivers that Moore can rely on.

Landry had seven catches for 93 yards and a touchdown and Stills had six catches for 85 yards and 2 touchdowns. Landry is one of the most targeted receivers in the slot and Stills has some rapport with Moore as a big play deep threat.

If Parker is a no-go for Thursday night football, Leonte Carroo and Jakeem Grant are other receivers they can use to replace him on the outside. Look for Smith/ Carr to cover Stills/ or Parker if he plays with Humphery in a rotation as Hill will cover his toughest matchup yet as a rookie in Landry in the slot.
