Ravens lose Ronnie Stanley for Rio game as Zay Flowers remains questionable

Baltimore will face the Cowboys in Rio de Janeiro without left tackle Ronnie Stanley. The Ravens' final injury report rules Stanley out with a toe injury after three missed practices. Receiver Zay Flowers is questionable with a hamstring issue; he missed Wednesday and Thursday practice before returning on a limited basis Friday. Those are separate availability decisions, and Flowers has not been ruled out.

The report gives Dallas a clearer picture of Sunday's opponent, though it does not settle how Baltimore will divide Stanley's pass-protection work. The Ravens have not named a game-day replacement in the report. Flowers' questionable status also leaves uncertainty in Lamar Jackson's receiving group. A limited Friday practice is a change from two days of no participation, but it does not guarantee that Flowers will be active in Brazil.

Dallas has its own confirmed absences. The Cowboys' injury report lists cornerback Cobie Durant, safeties Malik Hooker and P.J. Locke, and linebacker DeMarvion Overshown out. The four did not travel with the team, according to the club's Thursday update. Their absences were already known before Baltimore's Friday status became final. The new matchup question is whether the Ravens' missing left tackle and uncertain receiver availability alter what Dallas can ask of a reshaped defense. That will be answered by personnel and play, not the injury list alone.

The Cowboys arrived in Rio on Friday and practiced at Flamengo's training facility, according to team reporting from the site. Both clubs enter 1-1 after contrasting Week 2 outcomes: Dallas beat Washington, while Baltimore lost to New Orleans. Kickoff is Sunday at 3:25 p.m. Central at Maracanã Stadium, with CBS carrying the game and 105.3 The Fan carrying local radio, according to the Cowboys' game information.

The final check for Flowers is the inactive list before kickoff. The Cowboys' defensive absences and Stanley's absence are settled. This preview does not project a score or claim that one injury decides the game.
