Out due to hip injury
Ali won't return to Wednesday's game at Houston due to a hip injury.
Analysis: With Justice Hill (concussion) sidelined Wednesday, Ali got the first running-back touch that didn't go to starter Derrick Henry, but that carry went for minus-3 yards. Ali's only other contribution prior to exiting with the hip injury was a 23-yard return on the opening kickoff. Ali will have plenty of time to recover for the Ravens' regular-season finale, which will fall either Jan. 4 or 5 against the Browns.

Missing Week 12
Ali (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday night's matchup against the Chargers.
Analysis: The rookie from Marshall will be a healthy scratch for the second consecutive game Monday night. Ali has appeared in just one game this season, failing to record a stat across nine special-teams snaps.

Inactive for Week 11
Ali (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official site reports.
Analysis: Ali was sidelined for the Ravens' previous three games due to an ankle injury. However, despite being over the injury, Ali will be in street clothes Sunday as the Ravens go with a backfield of Derrick Henry, Justice Hill and Keaton Mitchell.

Off injury report
Ali (ankle) was absent from the Ravens' injury report Wednesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Ali was sidelined for Baltimore's past four games due to an ankle injury; however, his omission from Wednesday's injury report suggests he's moved past the issue. The rookie from Marshall has appeared in just one game this season, failing to record a stat across nine special-teams snaps. He's expected to serve as the Ravens' No. 4 running back as the season progresses, playing behind Derrick Henry, Justice Hill and Keaton Mitchell.

Not suiting up Thursday
Ali (ankle) is inactive for Thursday's Week 10 contest against Cincinnati.
Analysis: Ali was able to practice in full both Tuesday and Wednesday, but he isn't going to take the field on Thursday Night Football. The rookie's inactive status coincides with the season debut of fellow running back Keaton Mitchell, who was activated off the reserve/PUP list Thursday following a long layoff as a result of tearing the ACL in his left knee last December. With Mitchell officially back in the fold, Ali could have a hard time seeing game action on offense moving forward.

Iffy for Thursday
Ali (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Bengals.
Analysis: Ali logged full practice sessions Tuesday and Wednesday, but his status for Week 10 will remain in question until the team releases its inactive list at about 6:45 p.m. ET on Thursday. Even if Ali is healthy, he could remain inactive in a coach's decision in the event Keaton Mitchell (knee) is moved to the active roster and makes his season debut Thursday.

Upgrades to full practice Tuesday
Ali (ankle) was listed as a full practice participant on Tuesday's injury report.
Analysis: Ali has been sidelined for the Ravens' last three games due to an ankle injury, but the rookie fifth-round pick appears to be on track to return against the Bengals on Thursday. Ali would serve as the No. 3 running back behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill if Keaton Mitchell (knee) is not activated from the PUP list before Thursday's game.

No-go for Week 9
Ali (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with the Broncos.
Analysis: Ali will be forced to miss a third consecutive game after suffering an ankle injury in Week 6 versus the Commanders. The running back has logged only nine snaps on special teams this season, so his absence doesn't carry a major impact for Baltimore.

Begins week with DNP
Ali (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: The rookie running back from Marshall has been sidelined for each of the Ravens' last two games due to an ankle issue, and Wednesday's DNP suggests he could be in jeopardy of missing even more time. Ali likely needs to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for Baltimore's Week 9 matchup against the Broncos.

Out versus Browns
Ali (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Browns.
Analysis: Ali has been dealing with injuries this season, appearing in just nine special teams snaps Week 6 against Washington. The 5-foot-11 running back likely won't have much of a role beyond special teams with the team when he is able to return, but his next chance to do so will be Sunday, Nov. 3 at home against Denver.

Not practicing yet
Ali (ankle) is not participating in Thursday's practice, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Analysis: Ali, a rookie fifth-round pick, came off IR on Oct. 12 after missing Baltimore's first five games due to a neck injury, but he then sustained an ankle issue after suiting up Week 6 against the Commanders. He'll have one more opportunity Friday to get back on the practice field prior to Sunday's road game against the Browns.

Won't play vs. Tampa Bay
Ali (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Ali was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, but he finished the week with back-to-back DNPs and will not make the trip to Tampa Bay. His next chance at suiting up will be Week 8 against the Browns on Oct. 27. The Ravens will perhaps go with just two running backs Monday in Derrick Henry and Justice Hill, as practice squad RB Chris Collier has already been elevated to the active roster for the maximum three times.

Doesn't practice Friday
Ali (ankle) didn't practice Friday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Ali appears to be trending toward not playing in Monday night's matchup against the Buccaneers, as he downgraded from limited participation in Thursday's practice to a DNP on Friday. The rookie out of Marshall made his NFL debut in Baltimore's Week 6 win over the Commanders, playing just nine special-teams snaps. He'll likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation Saturday in order to suit up in Week 7.

Now dealing with ankle injury
Ali (ankle) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Cordell Woodland of 105.7 The Fan Baltimore reports.
Analysis: Ali missed the first five games of the regular season due to a neck injury, but he was able to return for Week 6 against the Commanders, during which he logged nine snaps on special teams. It appears the rookie fifth-rounder picked up an ankle injury in the process, which limited his practice participation Thursday. Ali will have two more chances to upgrade his practice participation ahead of Monday's showdown against the Buccaneers.

Cleared to make NFL debut
Ali (neck) is active for Sunday's game against the Commanders.
Analysis: Ali missed the Ravens' first five games while on IR due to a neck issue he sustained in early September. While he's cleared to make his NFL debut, the rookie fifth-round pick is expected to have a minor reserve role behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill.

Taken off IR
Ali (neck) was activated off injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: Ali landed on IR in early September due to a neck issue and sat out Baltimore's first five games. He was designated to return Oct. 3 but remained on IR until his activation Saturday. If he's cleared to suit up Sunday, Ali -- who is officially questionable for the contest -- could make his NFL regular-season debut, but he probably won't get many offensive snaps behind a healthy Derrick Henry and Justice Hill.

Deemed questionable
Ali (neck) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders.
Analysis: Ali has practiced in full for the last two weeks, but the Ravens don't need to rush him back thanks to a stable backfield of Derrick Henry and Justice Hill. If he is activated from injured reserve, Ali should be set for his NFL debut.

Not activated off IR yet
Ali was not activated off injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: The Ravens instead chose to call up Chris Collier from the practice squad. Despite Ali practicing in full earlier this week, the team evidently wants to give the rookie fifth-round pick another full week of practice time to ramp up with perhaps an aim of him playing Week 6.

Full practice but still on IR
Ali (neck) was a full participant in practice Friday, but he remains on injured reserve and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Analysis: Ali's activity level Friday is an encouraging sign in his recovery from a neck injury, but it remains to be seen if the rookie fifth-round pick will be given the green light to make his NFL debut as Baltimore takes on an AFC North rival. The Ravens would have to officially activate Ali from injured reserve prior to Sunday's game for him to be eligible to play. Even if Ali suits up, he's unlikely to play a significant role with Derrick Henry and Justice Hill both thriving in Baltimore's…read more

Returning to practice
The Ravens designated Ali (neck) for return to practice Thursday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Ali remains on injured reserve, but now that he's set to practice, the Ravens will have 21 days to evaluate him before adding him to the 53-man roster. Assuming he experiences no setbacks with his neck injury while practicing, Ali will eventually provide the team with backfield depth behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill.

Lands on IR
Ali (neck) has been placed on IR by the Ravens.

Doubtful for Week 1
Ali (neck) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's season opener against the Chiefs.
Analysis: With Ali trending toward inactive status Thursday, the Ravens' Week 1 backfield depth is thin behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill. The Ravens do, however, have the option to elevate John Kelly or Chris Collier from the practice squad to provide a third backfield option for Thursday.

Another limited practice
Ali (neck) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, Cordell Woodland of 105.7 The Fan Baltimore reports.
Analysis: Ali will have one more chance to increase his rep count in Wednesday's practice, after which point the Ravens will have to tag him with an injury designation for Thursday's regular-season opener against Kansas City. The rookie fifth-round pick has cleared the concussion protocol, but he's still working his way back from a stinger sustained during Baltimore's preseason opener.

Limited in practice Monday
Ali (neck) was a limited participant in Monday's practice.
Analysis: Ali is listed with a neck injury on Monday's first official practice report of the season, indicating that he's managed to clear the league's concussion protocol. The rookie fifth-round pick still appears to be managing a stinger sustained during Baltimore's preseason opener, though. He'll have two more opportunities to upgrade his participation level ahead of Thursday's regular-season opener against the Chiefs.

Iffy for Week 1
Coach John Harbaugh noted Monday that Ali is in concussion protocol, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Analysis: Per Harbaugh, the status of Ali -- who suffered a reported stinger in the Ravens' preseason opener -- is iffy for the team's regular-season opener, Thursday, Sept. 5 against the Chiefs. With fellow RB Owen Wright having suffered a broken foot Saturday, the Ravens' backfield depth behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill is currently taxed. As a result, it wouldn't be surprising to see Baltimore address the situation before, during or after initial roster cut downs.

Resumes practicing
Ali (neck) returned to practice Tuesday, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.comreports.
Analysis: A stinger had prevented Ali from participating in practice since the Ravens' preseason opener, but the 2024 fifth-rounder's return to the field Tuesday should allow him to resume competing for a depth role in Baltimore's backfield behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill. With Keaton Mitchell (knee) still on the PUP list, Ali's primary competition on that front is Owen Wright, who originally joined the team as an undrafted free agent last May.

Uncertain for roster spot
Ali (neck) hasn't practiced since Baltimore's preseason opener and isn't a lock for the 53-man roster, according to Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic.
Analysis: Ali suffered a stinger in the preseason-opening loss to Philadelphia, after taking 10 carries for 26 yards and one catch for four yards. He then missed Saturday's preseason win over the Falcons, with Owen Wright getting the start at running back in a game that saw the Ravens hold out a slew of veterans players, including Derrick Henry and Justice Hill. Baltimore took Ali in the fifth round of this year's draft, so he could stick around even if the team didn't see what it was hoping for this…read more

Misses practice Sunday
Ali did not practice Sunday while dealing wtih an undisclosed injury, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Analysis: Ravens coach John Harbaugh said following Sunday's practice that Ali sustained a stinger injury during Friday's 16-13 preseason loss to the Eagles. The rookie fifth-round pick posted 10 carries and one catch and returned one kickoff during this preseason opener, so it's unclear when or how this injury occurred.

Makes little impact Friday
Ali carried the ball 10 times for 26 yards and caught one of three targets for four yards in Friday's 16-13 preseason loss to the Eagles. He also returned one kickoff for 31 yards.
Analysis: The Ravens rested their key offensive personnel, including Derrick Henry and Justice Hill, but it was undrafted second-year player Owen Wright who got the start in the backfield and played the entire first half. Ali, a fifth-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, took over in the third quarter but managed only 30 scrimmage yards on 11 touches to Wright's 50 yards on eight touches. With Keaton Mitchell (knee) also expected to be ahead of Ali in the pecking order once he's healthy, the rookie would…read more

Ali is poised to compete for a pivotal role in the backfield, as J.K. Dobbins (Achilles) and Gus Edwards are now both with the Chargers and Keaton Mitchell (knee) is still recovering after tearing his ACL in December.
