Ravens CB Jaire Alexander inactive vs. Browns

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Jaire Alexander was listed as inactive for Sunday's game against the visiting Cleveland Browns.

Alexander, who was dealing with a knee injury during training camp, struggled in the Ravens' 41-40 season-opening loss to the Buffalo Bills last Sunday. He was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury, however he did not carry an injury designation into this game.

"Practice is important, especially at that position, for just being exactly right," Ravens coach John Harbaugh said Wednesday. "The main thing right now is just to get him right. He's healthy enough, but we have to get him right so (he) can go out there and play like Jaire Alexander, which I fully expect him to do. We'll just give him an opportunity to do that."

Alexander, a two-time Pro Bowl selection, signed a one-year, $4 million contract, plus incentives, with Baltimore this summer after being released by the Green Bay Packers.

In addition to Alexander, the Ravens listed the following players as inactive: running back Keaton Mitchell, fullback Patrick Ricard, tight end Isaiah Likely, offensive tackle Carson Vinson and linebacker David Ojabo.

As for the Browns (0-1), rookie running back Quinshon Judkins is available to make his NFL debut.

An early second-round pick in this year's draft, Judkins signed his four-year, $11.4 million rookie contract on Sept. 6 after an investigation into an alleged domestic violence incident in July in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

Judkins was accused of punching a woman in the face, arm and thigh, but prosecutors announced in August that they would not be moving forward with the case.

He was listed as questionable to play against the Ravens after participating in practice on both Thursday and Friday.

Judkins, 21, rushed for 1,060 yards and 14 touchdowns and caught 22 passes for 161 yards and two TDs in 16 games last season as Ohio State won the College Football Playoff national championship.

Cleveland listed rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders, offensive tackle Jack Conklin, running back Raheim Sanders, defensive tackle Mike Hall Jr. and guard Zak Zinter as inactive against the Ravens.
