Devin Duvernay, the Ravens' wide receiver and return man, has been activated for Baltimore's playoff game against the Houston Texans. This is the first time Duvernay has been active in over a month, as he has been dealing with a back injury. The Ravens' special teams coach, Chris Horton, stated that if Duvernay played, he would resume his duties as a kick and punt returner.

Duvernay's return comes at a crucial time, as Tylan Wallace, who has also been contributing as a returner, is inactive due to a knee injury. Baltimore activated Duvernay off injured reserve on Friday, and he hasn't played since December 10.

Despite Duvernay's return, the Ravens will be without cornerback Marlon Humphrey, who is sidelined with a calf problem. On the other side, the Texans will be missing defensive end Jerry Hughes.

It remains to be seen how much of an impact Duvernay will make in the game, but his return adds an extra dimension to the Ravens' special teams. With his speed and agility, he could be a game-changer in the return game. Ravens fans will be eagerly watching to see if Duvernay can make a difference in this crucial playoff matchup.
