Latest Ravens Player Notes

Nov 19 2009 - Billy Cundiff
PK Billy Cundiff understands that he will face pressure kicks. He also understands he must deal with the pressure of replacing Matt Stover, who returns to face his former team Sunday with the Indianapolis Colts. The Ravens cut Steve Hauschka this week because he was unable to fill the void left by Stover. Now, it has become Cundiff's job to do it. "He did a lot of really good things," Cundiff said. "To be quite honest with you, there are a lot of guys around the league that have done very similar things and the guy that comes in after them, they always have the same thing to deal with. So I think it's good, because if you have the bar set really high, you obviously have got to raise your game to make sure you meet that. If you're not willing to accept that challenge, then you're in the wrong business. This is a very pressure-driven business, and you've got to enjoy it."

"He's out this week, that's the ruling that we know," Baltimore coach John Harbaugh said. "It's got to heal on its own. There is no procedure that can be done. We'll just see how it goes." Suggs declined to speak to reporters as he limped down the hallway from the locker room to the lunchroom wearing a heavy brace on his knee. When teammate Ray Rice asked Suggs how he was doing, the linebacker just shook his head. There is a possibility that Suggs could miss between two to three weeks. Suggs likely will be replaced by rookie second-round pick Paul Kruger, though Kruger has yet to be told by Harbaugh.
