Heading into the final two weeks of the season, the Baltimore Ravens are in the thick of the playoff picture for one of the final Wild Card spots. Baltimore could get some much-needed help in the passing game with wide receiver Jeremy Maclin possibly available to play this week despite dealing with a knee injury that was previously feared to be season-ending.
WR Jeremy Maclin and DT Carl Davis are not believed to have season-ending injuries, Coach Harbaugh said. They could return as early as this week.

The 29-year-old suffered the injury in Baltimore's 27-10 win over the Cleveland Browns this past Sunday in the first series of the game. He played through another series but was ruled out for the rest of the contest following that, finishing with just one catch for 22 receiving yards.
In his first campaign with the Ravens, Maclin has struggled to provide consistent production in the passing game, recording 40 receptions on 72 targets for 440 receiving yards and three touchdowns. This includes recording fewer than 50 receiving yards nine times. Granted, much of that blame can be placed on Joe Flacco's shoulders, as he's had a disappointing season throwing for just 2,701 passing yards and 14 touchdowns while tossing 12 interceptions
Baltimore is currently on the outside looking in for one of the Wild Card spots in the AFC, but if they win out they'll likely get in given the tough schedules that Tennessee Titans and Buffalo Bills have. They finish up the regular season with a pair of home matchups against the Indianapolis Colts and Cincinnati Bengals.
