Zbikowski likely out; Falcons expect White to play

For the second straight day, safety Tom Zbikowski missed practice today because of a heel injury.

That almost certainly means that Zbikowski will miss his third straight game when the Ravens face the Falcons this Thursday.

"He hasn't practiced, so [he's] probably not going to make it," head coach John Harbaugh said today.

While things don't look good for Zbikowski, every other member of the Ravens' roster had a full practice again today.

For the Falcons, wide receiver Roddy White missed his second straight practice this afternoon, but Atlanta head coach Mike Smith told Baltimore reporters on a conference call that he expects the NFL's second-leading receiver to suit up on Thursday.

"All indications now is that Roddy should be ready to go," Smith said.

The only change to Atlanta's injury report from yesterday is that quarterback Chris Redman had a full practice today after missing Monday's session. His absence yesterday was not injury related.

C Todd McClure (knee), and LB Sean Weatherspoon (knee) missed practice for the Falcons again today, while WR Brian Finneran (knee/ribs), LB Curtis Lofton (knee), RB Jason Snelling (knee) and CB Brian Williams (hamstring) all were limited.
