Racks up nine tackles
Stephens recorded nine tackles (eight solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 41-38 overtime win at Cincinnati.
Analysis: In a game where Joe Burrow only threw nine incompletions on 39 pass attempts, Ravens defensive backs saw plenty of opportunities to make tackles. Stephens established a new season high for himself in that department, and he's actually on pace for a career high in tackles through five games.

Available Sunday
Stephens (ankle) is active ahead of Saturday's game against the Steelers.
Analysis: Stephens was able to practice in full Friday after beginning the week with a limited session due to an ankle injury, and it now seems as if he'll be able to play through the issue in Week 18. The 26-year-old cornerback will look to cause problems for a Steelers offense led by Mason Rudolph on Saturday.

Questionable for Week 18
Stephens (ankle) is considered questionable to play Saturday against the Steelers.
Analysis: Stephens was able to be a full participant at the Ravens' practice Friday after opening the week limited with an ankle issue, so his questionable designation may be due to the team potentially resting him. With Baltimore locked into the top seed in the AFC, the cornerback could take a seat in the regular-season finale versus Pittsburgh.

Limited in Tuesday walkthrough
Stephens (ankle) was estimated as a limited participant on Tuesday's practice report.
Analysis: Stephens was a mid-week addition to the injury report last week, logging a DNP Thursday before being deemed inactive for Sunday's eventual win over the Dolphins. It remains to be seen if the Ravens plan to play any of their injured players or starters in Week 18 since Baltimore has already sewn up the No. 1 seed in the AFC.

Out Week 17
Stephens (ankle) will not play in Sunday's game versus the Dolphins.
Analysis: Stephens logged consecutive DNPs to close the week due to an ankle injury. Thus, he was trending in the wrong direction, so it is no surprise that he will be held out Sunday. In his absence, Ronald Darby and Arthur Maulet are candidates to see increased reps at cornerback opposite Marlon Humphrey.

Could play Week 17
Stephens (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Analysis: The third-year cornerback out of SMU popped up on Baltimore's injury report as a non-participant in Thursday's practice, and after recording another DNP on Friday, Stephens' chances of playing seem to be getting worse. Arthur Maulet and Ronald Darby would likely see increased work in the Ravens' secondary if Stephens is unable to suit up in Week 17.

Dealing with ankle injury
Stephens did not practice Thursday due to an ankle issue, Cordell Woodland of 105.7 The Fan Baltimore reports.
Analysis: It's not clear how or when the ankle concern popped up, as Stephens wasn't listed on Wednesday's estimated injury report. The third-year cornerback has been a stalwart in Baltimore's secondary this season, playing every defensive snap in 13 of the team's 15 games so far. Kyle Hamilton (knee) and Arthur Maulet (knee) are both dealing with an injury as well, so the Ravens' secondary could be considerably shorthanded Sunday versus Miami.

Nabs second INT
Stephens had seven tackles (six solo) and a five-yard interception return in Sunday's 31-24 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Stephens picked off Joshua Dobbs at the beginning of the two-minute warning in the second quarter on a pass intended for Michael Wilson. It led to a one-yard rushing touchdown by Gus Edwards six plays later and gave the Ravens a seven-point lead heading into halftime. Stephens doubled his 2023 interception total in Week 8 and is now third on the Ravens defense with 45 tackles this season, trailing only Roquan Smith (82) and Patrick Queen (69). Sunday also marked yet another game in which…read more

Tallies 12 tackles Sunday
Stephens recorded 12 tackles in Sunday's 25-9 win versus Houston.
Analysis: Though not necessarily what Baltimore would like to see from a coverage-oriented defensive back, Stephens' 2023 debut certainly looked good in the box score and for fantasy managers. He's likely to see an expanded role moving forward with regular starting free safety Marcus Williams (pectoral) expected to miss extended time after a Week 1 injury.

Returns to action
Stephens participated in Baltimore's mandatory minicamp this week, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Stephens sat out the team's wild-card loss to the Bengals due to an illness but is now back in action. The 25-year-old began the transition from cornerback to safety earlier in the offseason after logging 37 tackles (31 solo) in 15 games during the previous campaign. The 2021 third-round pick will likely backup Marcus Williams and Kyle Hamilton as well as see time on special teams this coming season.

Moving to safety
Stephens is expected to transition to the safety position this summer, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Coach John Harbaugh told reporters that Stephens will be making the transition from cornerback to safety this offseason. The young defensive back is heading into his third year after being a Day 2 pick in the NFL Draft. His best season was his rookie year, when he started 11 games thanks to a litany of injuries to the team's secondary, totaling 78 tackles and four pass breakups. Last season, he started only four games for the Ravens, but he still accumulated seven pass deflections. Baltimore…read more

Ruled out for wild-card matchup
Stephens (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Bengals.
Analysis: Stephens became ill ahead of the Ravens' Week 18 matchup against the Bengals and was admitted to a hospital in Cincinnati, where he stayed for a few days. The 2021 third-round pick returned to the team Wednesday, but he won't be available for the playoff rematch against the Bengals.

Back with team after illness
Stephens (illness) has returned to Baltimore after being transported to a Cincinnati hospital Sunday.
Analysis: Stephens became acutely ill ahead of the Ravens' Week 18 matchup with the Bengals and was forced to remain in Cincinnati for a couple days to receive treatment. The specific details surrounding his condition have not been released, but the cornerback is now back with the team and his status is worth monitoring for Sunday's rematch against the Bengals in the wild-card round.

In line for increased role Week 16
Stephens should see increased defensive snaps with starting cornerback Marcus Peters (calf) ruled out for Saturday's game versus the Falcons, Clifton Brown of the Ravens' official site reports.
Analysis: Stephens has recorded 24 tackles and five passes defended while playing in a reserve role over 13 games this season, but he did play at least 90 percent of defensive snaps in seven games for Baltimore's heavily-injured secondary last season. This experience should make the second-year cornerback the likeliest candidate to start in place of Peters, who could miss additional time while dealing with a mild calf strain. Brandon logged 22 tackles and two passes defended while seeing his most…read more

Back at practice
Stephens (soft tissue) returned to practice Saturday, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Analysis: Stephens has been sidelined with a soft tissue injury. His return to practice indicates his health is back up to par. He projects to provide cornerback depth for Baltimore this season.

Has soft tissue injury
Stephens is dealing with a minor soft tissue injury, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The nature of Stephens' injury wasn't disclosed beyond that, but it being labeled as "minor" is encouraging. Baltimore's third-round selection in the 2021 NFL Draft will try to heal up in time to dress for the Aug. 11 preseason opener against Tennessee.

Leading tackler in loss
Stephens logged eight tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Browns.
Analysis: Stephens carried a questionable tag ahead of Sunday's matchup, but he didn't appear to be limited by his shoulder injury while leading the Ravens in tackles against Cleveland. He was on the field for 98 percent of the team's defensive snaps Sunday and has now totaled 28 tackles (20 solo) and a pass defense across the last five games.

Questionable for Sunday
Stephens (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday against the Browns.
Analysis: Stephens was able to log a full practice Friday, so he appears headed in the right direction. With the Ravens' secondary full of injuries, they can't really afford to take on any more. If Stephens is unable to play, Geno Stone would likely be looking at a starting job.

Expected to start Thursday
Stephens is expected to start Thursday night against the Dolphins, Ryan Mink of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: The rookie is expected to start at safety in place of DeShon Elliott (pectoral/biceps), who is expected to miss the remainder of the season. In what has been described as a "group effort" to replace Elliott, Stephens will look to build upon his 32 tackles and pass deflection he has to this point in 2021.
