The Ravens have already suffered an onslaught of injuries this year, but the biggest yet came Sunday afternoon.
Six-time Pro Bowl right guard Marshal Yanda fractured his left ankle in Sunday’s 24-10 win over the Cleveland Browns, Head Coach John Harbaugh announced.
Yanda is arguably the best guard in the NFL. Beyond that, he’s the heart and soul of the offensive line and one of the team’s primary leaders. For a team looking to recommit to a physical running offensive attack, losing Yanda adds yet another roadblock for a banged-up offense.
“There is not a word in the English dictionary that can describe what Marshal is to us,” said another veteran leader, Terrell Suggs.
