Ravens expect Nnamdi Madubuike to resume contact work soon

Ravens defensive tackle Nnamdi Madubuike has been limited to stretching and individual drills since coming off the physically unable to perform list early in training camp. Head coach Jesse Minter indicated that Madubuike might start participating in contact drills in the next couple of weeks. Madubuike is recovering from a neck injury that sidelined him for most of last season, necessitating a cautious approach to his return. With preparations for Week 1 ongoing, timely progression is critical for Madubuike's potential involvement in the season opener.
