They think he could be an important part in the team improving on its pass rush and run defense, which will be tested Sunday by Willis McGahee and the Baltimore Ravens. ``Kenyon had a real good camp and performed well in his first outing here in the opening game,'' defensive coordinator Bob Sutton said. ``Like all of our players in our entire unit defensively, he's got areas he's got to improve.

Now they will have the pleasure of paying a visit to the Cleveland Browns this Sunday in Week 2 of the NFL season. The Bengals grinded out a 27-20 win over the Baltimore Ravens on Monday night, thanks to a big play on defense and precise passing from quarterback Carson Palmer. Palmer, who is entering his second season since a devastating knee injury, picked apart Baltimore's defense for 194 yards, two touchdowns and no int |

| Jets quarterback's limp was still there, but less pronounced than it had been. Pennington's injured right ankle appeared to be a lot better Friday as he dropped back and threw light passes while the Jets prepared for their game Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens. He had a less noticeable white wrap around the ankle and was listed as questionable on the injury report. Despite published reports that the Jets had already decided on starting backup Kellen Clemens, coach Eric Mangini insisted that hadn't been |

BALTIMORE (AP) -Each team made the playoffs last year. Neither is certain if its starting quarterback can play Sunday. Both began the season with a loss. The New York Jets and Baltimore Ravens have plenty in common. On a neutral field, under different circumstances, Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis might deem a matchup between the teams to be a tossup. But Baltimore is at home and coming off an error-filled performance in Cincinnati. So, when asked if he considered the possibility of starting the season with |

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) -Chad Pennington dropped back and threw a few light passes. That counts as significant progress for the injured New York Jets quarterback, who was still preparing Thursday to play against the Baltimore Ravens. Pennington appeared to favor his injured right ankle in practice, but made some throws during drills after not taking any snaps the previous day during the half-hour period that the media are allowed to view. Pennington, hurt on a sack during New York's loss to New England on |

| Baltimore, MD (MySportsbook) - Linebacker Ray Lewis, quarterback Steve McNair and offensive tackle Jonathan Ogden all did not participate in team practice for the Baltimore Ravens on Wednesday.

McNair pulled a groin muscle in the first quarter of Monday's game and was removed from action during the Ravens' final drive. McNair stated that he could |

(AP) -Baltimore Ravens left tackle Jonathan Ogden will almost certainly miss Sunday's game against the New York Jets, and the status of injured quarterback Steve McNair remained uncertain Wednesday as the team began preparing for its home opener. But middle linebacker Ray Lewis declared himself ready to go despite straining his right triceps on the Ravens' opening defensive play Monday night in a 27-20 loss to Cincinnati. ``My arm feels so much better,'' said Lewis, who did not particip |

Whether that includes playing against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday remains to be seen, but Pennington is preparing as if he'll be out on the field despite his injured right ankle. ``It's just a day-to-day process and I'm working extremely hard around the clock to do everything I can to prepare myself to |
