Ravens defense sends a message by shutting out Cincinnati. Tavius Robinson's return was key
Baltimore became the first team to shut out Cincinnati since Joe Burrow was drafted15 HOURS AGO • Associated Press
Rasheen Ali - Reaches end zone in victory Ali caught both of his targets for 32 yards and a touchdown while also adding a 32-yard kickoff return in Sunday's 24-0 win over the Bengals.
Impact Ali finished second on the team in both catches and receiving yards, most notably turning a short reception into a 30-yard touchdown in the second quarter. The running back appears to have carved out a solid role for himself in the passing game, reeling in four of five targets for 43 yards and a score over the last two contests. He remains behind Derrick Henry and Keaton Mitchell on the depth chart, but Ali may garner more opportunities moving forward.

Rasheen Ali - Three touches in loss Ali rushed once for two yards and caught two of three targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Steelers.
Impact Ali played 27 of the Ravens' 80 offensive snaps, behind Derrick Henry (43) and ahead of Keaton Mitchell (12). The second-year running back was not a major factor in the contest, recording just 13 total yards on his three touches. As long as Henry is healthy, Ali figures to continue to see limited usage in Baltimore's offense. The Marshall product should remain far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 15 matchup against the Bengals.

Rasheen Ali - Out-snaps Henry on Thanksgiving Day Ali turned four carries into 17 yards and three kickoff returns into 71 yards during the Ravens' 32-14 loss to the Bengals on Thursday.
Impact Ali had just four touches on offense during Thursday's loss, though his 29 snaps were notably higher than RB1 Derrick Henry (24) as game script worked against the latter. Ali figures to serve as the Ravens' RB2 behind Henry and ahead of Keaton Mitchell for as long as Justice Hill (neck) is on injured reserve.

Impact Ali worked exclusively on special teams in the two games since the Ravens' Week 7 bye.

Ali's next opportunity to play is Week 11 against the Browns on Sunday, Nov. 16.

Rasheen Ali - Limited to special teams Ali returned three kickoffs for 88 yards in Sunday's 30-16 win over the Bears.
Impact Ali has been active for all seven of the Ravens' games this season, but he continues to be deployed almost exclusively on special teams. The reserve running back has logged just five offensive snaps all season and hasn't had a touch since carrying once for five yards in Baltimore's Week 1 loss to Buffalo.

Rasheen Ali - Will play versus Detroit Ali (concussion) isn't listed on Baltimore's injury report ahead of Monday's matchup versus Detroit.
Impact Ali suffered a concussion during last week's win over the Browns but has now cleared the league's concussion protocol, making him eligible to return to the field. He should continue to serve as the team's top kick returner as well as their No. 3 running back behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill.

Rasheen Ali - Logs full session Ali (concussion) logged a full practice session Friday.
Impact Ali suffered a concussion in Sunday's win over the Browns and was a limited participant Thursday. While his full practice Friday is a positive sign, he'll need to clear the league's concussion protocol before being cleared for Monday's matchup against the Lions.

Rasheen Ali - Not returning Sunday Ali (concussion) is out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Browns, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Impact The running back and special teamer was evaluated for a possible concussion during the first quarter. Ali recorded one solo tackle before exiting. Justice Hill is next in line to take over his kickoff-return duties.

Rasheen Ali - Might have concussion Ali is getting evaluated for a possible concussion during Baltimore's matchup with Cleveland on Sunday.
Impact The running back and special teamer exited in the first quarter, but he did record a solo tackle before leaving the contest. Ali finished with 167 kickoff-return yards in the Ravens' 41-40 loss to the Bills in Week 1, and in his absence, Justice Hill might be next in line to return kicks.
SEPTEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Rasheen Ali - Solid as kick returner in Week 1 Ali was Baltimore's primary kick returner Sunday against the Bills, racking up 167 yards on six opportunities. He added one carry for five yards.
Impact Baltimore gave Ali the nod over Keaton Mitchell as the third active running back. Ali only saw one snap on offense, but he did impress on special teams as he routinely set Baltimore up in good field position. With Derrick Henry and Justice Hill both healthy, it's difficult to project much work for a No.3 running back in Baltimore. It will be worth monitoring whether Baltimore gives Ali another go in Week 2 against Cleveland, or sees what it has with Mitchell in the kick returner/depth running back role.

Rasheen Ali - Scores TD on opening drive Ali took nine carries for 36 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 30-3 preseason win over Washington.
Impact The 2024 fifth-round pick solidified his argument for the No. 4 RB role, starting the final preseason game and hitting paydirt from nine yards out on the opening drive. D'Ernest Johnson also got snaps on the first drive, and then scored a TD on the second series, but Ali remains the favorite to stick around for one of Baltimore's final few roster spots. Fellow RBs Derrick Henry, Justice Hill and Keaton Mitchell were among the dozens of Ravens rested Saturday, with coach John Harbaugh mostly using the game to evaluate the bottom of his roster. Harbaugh said in mid-August that the Ravens intend to keep a fourth RB (presumably Ali) on their initial regular-season roster.
