Ravens middle linebacker Ray Lewis practiced on Friday for the first time since injuring his back nearly three weeks ago, and his availability for Sunday is considered a game-time decision.

Ravens middle linebacker Ray Lewis underwent a minor surgical procedure Thursday to have a pocket of blood drained from his swollen back, and is unlikely to play on Sunday against the Falcons.

Tennessee receiver David Givens hurt his left knee in the fourth quarter against Baltimore and had to be carted off the field, the second player needing such help in the game.

Ravens middle linebacker Ray Lewis missed his first game this season Sunday when he was deactivated against the Titans with a back injury.
