The Ravens placed Fort (ACL) on injured reserve Monday.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Fort's torn ACL has forced him to injured reserve. The nine-year veteran is coming of a career-high 54 tackles in 14 games for the Ravens last year. Malik Harrison and Chris Board are now set to compete for the backup linebacker spot behind Patrick Queen.

Fort suffered a torn ACL during Saturday's preseason contest against the Panthers, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
While it was a clean tear, Fort's season will still likely be over after he undergoes surgery. The nine-year veteran notched a career-high 54 tackles in 14 games with the Ravens last year. In his absence, Malik Harrison and Chris Board will compete for the backup linebacker spot behind Patrick Queen.

Fort (knee) was listed as questionable to return to Saturday's preseason contest against the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Fort notched a career-high 54 tackles in 14 games with the Ravens last year and was rewarded with a one-year contract this offseason. The 31-year-old will likely compete with Malik Harrison and Chris Board for backup reps behind Patrick Queen. Fort's status for the Ravens' third preseason game against Washington on Aug. 28 is unknown.

The Ravens re-signed Fort to a one-year contract Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Ford notched a career-high 53 total tackles across 14 games with the Ravens last year, in addition to two pass breakups, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery which he returned for a score. The 31-year-old will be a key factor in Baltimore's linebacker corps, but as long as he's only playing a rotational role he won't offer much in the way of fantasy value.

Fort (finger) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Titans.
EDGE Analysis
Fort was a full participant throughout the practice week after being forced to sit out the Ravens' past two games with his finger injury. All indications pointed toward him playing Week 11, and now it's confirmed the 30-year-old will return to his starting inside linebacker slot Sunday for a rematch of January's divisional-round loss to Tennessee.

Fort (finger) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Titans.
EDGE Analysis
Fort practiced without limitations Friday, so it looks like he's on track to play Sunday barring a setback. The Northern Iowa product has started the last six games he played, but he logged more than a 50 percent snap share on just one occasion in that stretch. He's a tough IDP play at that rate, especially while averaging just 3.7 tackles per contest.

Fort (finger) was a full participant during Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Fort was forced to miss the past two games with the finger issue, but as evidenced by this news, he appears to be on track to return for Week 11. Now that Fort is officially healthy, he'll look to return to his usual starting role as one of the team's inside linebackers for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Fort (finger) is inactive for Sunday's game in New England.
EDGE Analysis
Fort's finger injury will force him to miss a second straight contest. In his stead, Malik Harrison could receive another opportunity to start alongside Patrick Queen.

Fort was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fort is considered a high-risk close contact to Marlon Humphrey, who tested positive for the virus Monday, and he'll need to isolate for five days. If Fort tests negative through Saturday, he'll be available for Sunday's road clash versus the Colts. Matt Judon, Patrick Queen, Malik Harrison and Tyus Bowser all landed on the list as well. If any of the five linebacker test positive and are forced to sit out, the Ravens likely will call up a practice squad player.
