Ravens RG Marshal Yanda (ankle) expects to rejoin the starting lineup for Sunday's Wild-Card round game versus the Colts.
"I'm playing," said Yanda, "and I'm going to be going 100 percent on Sunday." The All-Pro caliber guard sustained a high-ankle sprain in Week 14, so take his "100 percent" claim with a grain of salt. Mon, Dec 31, 2012 10:14:00 AM

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

Ravens RG Marshal Yanda (ankle) isn't practicing this week, and is in a walking boot.

He has a high-ankle sprain. Yanda will miss Sunday's game against the Broncos, and should be considered week-to-week. Jah Reid and Bobbie Williams should be the Ravens' starting guards against Denver.

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

Ravens RG Marshal Yanda suffered a sprained ankle in Sunday's Week 14 loss to the Redskins.

It looks like a multi-week injury. Yanda was sporting crutches and a walking boot on his way out of the stadium. Baltimore's best offensive lineman, Yanda grades out as Pro Football Focus' No. 2 guard this season. His absence would be unwelcome news for Ray Rice's fantasy owners.

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

Ravens RG Marshal Yanda restructured his contract in order to give the team some cap relief.

He dropped his 2012 salary to $700,000 and converted the remainder of his previous $4.5 million base into a signing bonus, which will be prorated through 2015. Yanda signed a five-year, $32.5 million blockbuster contract last summer. He proceeded to grade as Pro Football Focus' No. 3 guard in the entire league.

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

Ravens RG Marshal Yanda underwent surgery to address compartment syndrome in his thigh on December 24.

Yanda played through the compartment syndrome and a rib injury late in the season. "My ribs are feeling good and my leg is feeling good, too," said Yanda. "The bye week was huge. I'm going to practice today." Despite playing at less than 100 percent, Yanda graded out as Pro Football Focus' No. 3 overall guard in 2011, behind only Evan Mathis (Eagles) and Carl Nicks (Saints).

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

Ravens RG Marshal Yanda played in Week 17 through badly bruised ribs and cartilage "that has separated from the bone."

"There is no one tougher than Marshal," said coach John Harbaugh. "That is a reflection of our whole team. He optimizes that, certainly." Yanda made his first career Pro Bowl in 2011. He has a first-round bye to heal up.

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

Ravens RG Marshal Yanda (ribs) is not expected to play in next week’s game against the Bengals.

Yanda was forced from Week 16 with "bruised ribs" and is looking like a long shot to be active with Andre Gurode capable of filling in at right guard. "I don't know if it's broken yet or not," Yanda said. "We'll find out. I can't breathe real well right now. I can't do deep breaths."

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

Ravens OC Cam Cameron noted that RG Marshal Yanda could still be moved back to right tackle to start the season.

It would be out of necessity, not preference. Oneil Cousins has been moved inside for good, and it may be asking too much of rookie Jah Reid to step in as the immediate starter at right tackle. Taking Yanda from guard would hurt Ray Rice and help Joe Flacco.

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

Ravens agreed to terms with RG Marshal Yanda on a five-year, $32 million contract.

One previous report stated that Yanda turned down an offer of $6.5 million per season, so the Ravens came out better than expected. They made it clear all along that Yanda would be a top priority. Yanda graded out as a top-five tackle, according to Pro Football Focus, but the Ravens plan to kick him back inside at right guard to jumpstart a running game that struggled last season.

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

NFL Network's Jason La Canfora reports that the Ravens made free agent G/T Marshal Yanda a contract offer worth roughly $6.5 million a year before the lockout, but Yanda rejected it.

La Canfora calls Yanda the best free agent offensive lineman on the market, and he clearly anticipates making more money than that. It's expected that the Redskins will also pursue Yanda, who is the Ravens' top priority to re-sign. La Canfora suggests Baltimore may have to pay him nearly $8 million a year.

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

The Redskins reportedly plan to target G/T Marshal Yanda as a priority in free agency.

The Ravens have also identified Yanda as a nucleus player to be locked up, so the competition will be stiff. Yanda would likely slide back to guard in either locale. Although he has experience with Redskins O-Line coach Chris Foerster, we suspect he'll end up back in Baltimore.

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

The player rep for free agent G/T Marshal Yanda hinted Thursday that his client prefers to stay in Baltimore.

A hometown discount would be music to Ozzie Newsome's ears. "Both Marshal and I are very aware that if Baltimore isn’t the best organization in pro football, it’s certainly in the top couple," said agent Neil Cornrich. "... It's not a place you rush to leave." Yanda could pursue a deal similar to Broncos RG Chris Kuper's. Kuper signed for $28 million over six years last June.

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

Ravens officials have informed free agent G/T Marshal Yanda that they intend to sign him to a long-term deal.

Yanda will be Baltimore's No. 1 priority in free agency, ahead of Jared Gaither, Chris Carr, Josh Wilson, Marc Bulger, and Donte' Stallworth. "He's a dominant puller. He's physical," said coach John Harbaugh of Yanda earlier this offseason. "If you can put a nice, big right tackle next to him, that would really help."

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

Coach John Harbaugh confirmed that his "one major issue" on the offensive line is re-signing T/G Marshal Yanda.

"That's going to be a priority for us," Harbaugh said. "He's one of my favorite guys." Yanda played right tackle last year, but the Ravens will almost certainly kick him back inside to jump-start the rushing attack if they're successful in re-signing him.

Marshal Yanda - G - Ravens

According to Aaron Wilson of the Carroll County Times, re-signing free agent T/G Marshal Yanda is a "high priority" for the Ravens.

Wilson cautions that the Ravens won't do "anything until (the) CBA is resolved." Baltimore has re-signed some bit players and special teamers, but committing large amounts of money to free agents like Yanda or Jared Gaither will have to wait. They'll be sure not to overpay either of the oft-injured linemen.
