Torrey Smith did not appear to be favoring his sprained ankle Monday as much as he did during practice Sunday, CSN Baltimore reports. The Baltimore Ravens were without the deep threat during Friday's preseason loss against the Detroit Lions. Smith is expected to play Thursday against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Analysis: It sounds like Smith is approaching full health after spraining his ankle during the Ravens' preseason opener. That's good news for quarterback Joe Flacco, who went just 7-for-12 passing for 79 yards during the loss without Smith and both starting tight ends, Ed Dickson and Dennis Pitta. If the Ravens maintain their up-tempo ways, Smith could prove to be a very valuable, high-upside WR2 this season. Counting on the Ravens to roll out a consistent gameplan on a weekly basis is risky, however.
