The Baltimore Ravens' injury woes continued with safety Kyle Hamilton added to the list of players not practicing Thursday in advance of Sunday's home game against the Houston Texans.

Hamilton, who is listed with a groin injury, had been limited in practice Wednesday.

Baltimore (1-3) has struggled with key injuries in the early part of the season. Among those not practicing Thursday, along with Hamilton, were quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring), fullback Patrick Richard (calf), linebacker Roquan Smith (hamstring) and cornerbacks Marlon Humphrey (calf) and Chidobe Awuzie (hamstring).

There was some good news for the Ravens with center Tyler Linderbaum (calf) improving after he was limited Wednesday.

Cooper Rush is slated to start at quarterback for Baltimore should Jackson remain sidelined. Off the bench in the Ravens' 37-20 road loss Sunday to Kansas City, Rush completed nine of 13 passes for 52 yards without a touchdown or interception.

Rush has started 14 of his 40 career games, including eight last season when he filled in for Dak Prescott with the Dallas Cowboys.
