The Detroit Lions could draw a supremely short-handed Ravens defensive line on Monday Night Football. Here’s what we know so far:

Injuries Impacting Ravens’ Defensive Line

– Kyle Van Noy: The Ravens linebacker left Sunday’s game with a groin injury and could miss multiple games. His absence would be significant for the Ravens’ defense.

– Marlon Humphrey: The cornerback also left Sunday’s game with a groin injury, and his status for Monday’s game is uncertain.

– Other Potential Returns: Isaiah Likely and fullback Patrick Ricard might return to the lineup, which could bolster the Ravens’ offense.

Key Matchup Points

– Ravens’ Defensive Dominance: The Ravens’ defense has been impressive, ranking among the top three in several metrics. However, injuries could impact their performance.

– Lions’ Offense: The Lions’ offense has shown flashes of brilliance, with Jared Goff playing exceptionally well. They’ll need to continue this form to trouble the Ravens.

– Historical Advantage: The Ravens have a 6-1 record against the Lions, with the most recent matchup resulting in a 38-6 blowout win for Baltimore.

– Total: The total points are set at 53.5, with the over/under odds being relatively even.
