Gaither injury update

Jared Gaither was a no-show at Ravens minicamp today, and head coach John Harbaugh says the offensive tackle's absence is due to bruising on the bottom of his foot.

The bruising was revealed during Gaither's visit to foot specialist Dr. Bob Anderson last week.

Harbaugh says that the injury is "nothing major" and he expects Gaither back sometime soon.

"They've worked on some orthodics, he wasn't comfortable with them, so he's going to get a cortisone shot which basically speeds up the healing process," Harbaugh said. "[He will] let it settle down for a couple days and he should be back here quickly."

With Gaither out, Marshal Yanda moved from right guard to right tackle for most of today's session. Chris Chester filled in at right guard in Yanda's place.

Oniel Cousins got some time at right tackle as well, and also saw reps at left tackle with the second team.
