The Ravens’ run game has all its pieces back, as tight end Charlie Kolar has been activated from injured reserve to the 53-man roster.
Kolar missed the past four games with a broken forearm but is now in line to play in Saturday’s regular-season finale against the Cleveland Browns.
The Ravens moved cornerback Jalyn Armour-Davis (hamstring) to injured reserve. It’s the second time that Armour-Davis has gone on IR this season due to a hamstring injury.
He injured it the second time during pregame warmups before the Ravens faced the New York Giants on Dec. 15. Injuries have hampered the third-year cornerback, who has played in 19 total games, including seven this season.
The Ravens also elevated defensive end Chris Wormley and wide receiver Anthony Miller from the practice squad for Saturday’s game.
Tight end Mark Andrews told the “The Pat McAfee Show” that Kolar suffered the injury in the win over the Los Angeles Chargers when Derrick Henry ran into him. Kolar still finished the game.
Kolar has been a key blocker this season, helping Derrick Henry gallop for the second-most rushing yards (1,783) in the league. Kolar has also been a sneaky receiver, catching nine passes for 131 yards and a touchdown.
Kolar and the Ravens’ ground game will be crucial in Saturday’s cold temperatures at M&T Bank Stadium and in the playoffs as Baltimore looks to go on a figurative and literal run.
