Ravens' Stanley out for season with 'severe' ankle injury
Baltimore Ravens left tackle Ronnie Stanley will miss the remainder of the season with a "severe" ankle injury, head coach John Harbaugh announced.
Stanley was carted from Sunday's AFC North clash against the Pittsburgh Steelers and quickly ruled out for the rest of the game. He appeared to be in significant pain while on the ground, and an air cast was placed on his left leg.
Quarterback Lamar Jackson offered some words of support postgame.

The Ravens shuffled their offensive line after Stanley left, moving Orlando Brown to left tackle and plugging in D.J. Fluker at right tackle.
Stanley signed a five-year extension reportedly worth up to $112 million on Thursday.
A first-round pick in 2016, the 26-year-old anchored an offensive line that helped Baltimore set an NFL single-season record last year for rushing yards (3,296) and become the league's No. 1 scoring offense (33.2 points per game).
He earned his first All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors for his efforts.
