Fantasy impact: Jacoby Jones (knee) is also expected to return to the lineup in Week 6 after he was hurt in the team's season opening game against the Denver Broncos. Jones' return makes the Ravens' production at wide receiver a little tougher to predict beyond the likes of Torrey Smith, as not everyone will get the targets they desire.
That's especially true considering coach John Harbaugh is committed to the ground attack as means of getting the Ravens back on a winning path. With Ray Rice and Bernard Pierce back there, it's easy to see why the coach would want to run the ball as Rice in particular has been a center piece in Baltimore's offense for his entire career.
In Week 6, the Ravens face a Packers defense that gives up the 11th most fantasy points to wide receivers.
