"Not one person is going to replace Roquan," Orr said last week. "Roquan's an every-down linebacker [and] a top linebacker in this league [and] All-Pro for a reason. We like our guys that we have in the room. They got to step up, and we got to step up collectively as a defense, and that linebacker room [has] to step up collectively as a group."
This would mark the first time Smith would be sidelined for a game due to injury since the end of the 2019 season, when he finished the season on injured reserve with a torn pectoral muscle.
Smith left on the first play of the fourth quarter in an 18-16 loss at the Pittsburgh Steelers on Nov. 17 and did not return. He didn't practice all week and had been listed as questionable for Monday's game.
The Ravens' defense has struggled with this season, ranking 26th in total yards (362.0) and 23rd in points allowed (24.6).
