Taliaferro (foot) is listed as inactive for Sunday's matchup with the Browns.

Taliaferro had been listed as probable for the contest after practicing on a limited basis both Thursday and Friday. He'll sit out the afternoon contest, however, giving way to Javorius Allen to be the primary backup to starter Justin Forsett. Fantasy owners hoping to vulture a goal line touch from Taliaferro should quickly execute their contingency plan.

After missing Wednesday's practice, Taliaferro was limited both Thursday and Friday. While Justin Forsett is the clear leader of Baltimore's backfield, the upcoming matchup is ideal for Taliaferro's role, as the Ravens are heavily favored to win against a team that can't stop the run. Of course, Taliaferro still has a modest ceiling, not to mention a very low floor.

At this stage, Taliaferro is trending toward being available Sunday against the Browns, though both he and Javorius Allen are behind Justin Forsett in the Ravens' RB pecking order.

Taliaferro (foot) did not practice Wednesday.

Taliaferro missed practice earlier this season with foot and knee issues, though it's unclear if his absence from practice Wednesday is indicative of a setback or simply maintenance-related.

Taliaferro had three carries for 13 yards and one catch for 11 yards in Thursday's 23-20 overtime win over the Steelers.

Taliaferro still seems to be the preferred choice for goal-line and short-yardage work, but his grip on the No. 2 spot on the depth chart may be slipping. Rookie Javorius Allen had five carries for 19 yards, suggesting that he's more or less even with Taliaferro as co-No. 2 running backs. If lead back Justin Forsett were to suffer an injury, his two backups would likely both take on big roles, with Taliaferro more focused on inside running and goal-line/short-yardage situations, whereas Allen would get some of the early-down work and nearly all of the passing-down work.

Taliaferro carried the ball three times for no yards and caught his only target for six yards in Sunday's loss to the Bengals.

The second-year runner had a strong showing in limited work against the Raiders last week, but he found the sledding much tougher on Sunday and was minimally involved in the offense. Starter Justin Forsett struggled again and is now averaging 3.1 yards per carry on the season, but Taliaferro has yet to make his claim for an increased role. The Ravens will head to Pittsburgh for a divisional showdown in Week 4.

The second-year player could see some goal line work, although he's facing a challenging matchup against a Bengals defense that hasn't surrendered a touchdown on the ground yet in 2015. In his season debut Week 2, Taliaferro rushed for 34 yards and a score on seven carries.

Given that a foot injury ended Taliaferro's rookie season last December, this is a situation to monitor, though as long as Justin Forsett is healthy, Taliaferro's fantasy upside is capped in his role as the Ravens' No. 2 back. Currently behind Taliaferro in the team's RB pecking order is Javorius Allen.

Taliaferro had seven carries for 34 yards and a touchdown, adding three catches for 12 yards on three targets, in Sunday's 37-33 loss to the Raiders.

Taliaferro returned to practice last Friday, then logged full practices throughout the week, putting him on track to make his 2015 debut in Week 2 against the Raiders. He'll step back in as the Ravens' No. 2 running back, after easily beating out Javorius Allen for the job during training camp and the preseason. Taliaferro's role may include goal-line and short-yardage work, and he should see extra carries when the Ravens go into clock-killing mode in the fourth quarter of multi-score victories.

It was generally assumed Taliaferro would miss Sunday's regular-season opener against the Broncos, but his absence may not be a sure thing, even though he suffered a sprained MCL less than three weeks ago. At the very least, Friday's return to practice bodes well for his Week 2 status, which is excellent news for a Ravens team that doesn't seem to have much faith in rookie Javorious Allen. Once he's available, Taliaferro will serve as Justin Forsett's top backup. According to ESPN's Jamison Hensley, Taliaferro is still unlikely to play in Sunday's game against the Broncos.
