The Baltimore Ravens have elevated veteran wide receiver Keith Kirkwood and defensive back Amani Oruwariye from the practice squad for the AFC North title game against the Steelers, with Kirkwood set to make his first appearance of the season. Key players like Rashod Bateman and Marlon Humphrey are dealing with illnesses, which could impact the team's lineup.
Derek Carr had a successful debut as the New Orleans Saints quarterback, leading a 12-play scoring drive and throwing a touchdown pass to Keith Kirkwood. Carr completed 6-of-8 passes for 70 yards, including a promising 16-yard connection with wide receiver Michael Thomas. Despite missing most of the last three seasons due to injuries, Thomas is healthy and optimistic about his partnership with Carr. Carr also completed passes to tight end Juwan Johnson and running back Alvin Kamara, who will serve a three-game suspension but is eligible to play and practice until the regular season begins.
