| Ravens C Matt Birk Hopeful To Play In Preseason Opener Vs Falcons
On Friday, Ravens coach John Harbaugh didn’t sound optimistic that Matt Birk would be available for Thursday night’s preseason opener at the Atlanta Falcons. But the 36-year-old center said Saturday that he is holding out hope that he might be able to play Thursday. “I hope I don’t” miss the game, Birk said after the team’s practice at M&T Bank Stadium on Saturday. “We talked today, and although you can’t predict the future, I hope I don’t. My goal is to be out there.” Birk confirmed Harbaugh’s diagnosis that back spasms have shelved him for the past six days. But Birk said the spasms aren’t serious enough to warrant major concern. “Nothing big, nothing structural,” he said. “Just working to get it calmed down.” Source: Baltimore Sun |
