Defensive lineman Vince Wilfork (left ankle) did not practice Thursday for the second day in a row, as his availability for Sunday's game against the Ravens remains in question.

Offensive tackle Nick Kaczur (left ankle), who missed Wednesday's practice, had limited participation Thursday, as did receivers Randy Moss (back) and Wes Welker (knee).

Cornerback Darius Butler (thigh), safety Matthew Slater (elbow), cornerback Shawn Springs (knee), cornerback Jonathan Wilhite (groin) and defensive tackle Mike Wright (shoulder) were also limited.

Linebacker Jerod Mayo (right MCL) also remained out of practice.

Ravens

For the Ravens, quarterback Troy Smith missed his second day of practice with an illness. Defensive end Trevor Price returned after missing Wednesday's session, but was limited. Also limited for Baltimore on Thursday: DT Justin Bannan (knee), LB Tavaras Godden (shoulder/head), LB Jarret Johnson (shoulder).

After limited participation Wednesday, a trio of Ravens had full participation in TE Todd Heap (back), LB Ray Lewis (LB), and WR Kelley Washington (groin). Linebacker Antwan Barnes was added to the report with a shoulder injury, but engaged in full participation.
