Ravens' Emery Jones Expected Out Until Training Camp Due to Shoulder Injury

Baltimore Ravens rookie offensive lineman Emery Jones Jr., their third-round draft pick from LSU, is sidelined with a shoulder labrum injury and is not expected to participate until training camp. Head coach John Harbaugh indicated Jones will miss the remainder of the team's offseason program, including organized team activities and mandatory minicamp. While the injury is not expected to impact his regular season availability, Jones will have to catch up upon his return, especially as he could compete for playing time at guard. In the meantime, his absence provides opportunities for other young offensive linemen and newly acquired veteran Joe Noteboom to take on more reps and potentially secure larger roles. The Ravens have prioritized building depth along the offensive line following recent free agency departures. Harbaugh emphasized the importance of waiting until Jones is fully ready before integrating him back into practices.
