NFL Notes: Bucs, Cardinals, Lions, & Ravens

Buccaneers

Cardinals

• Cardinals HC Bruce Arians said that LT Jared Veldheer fractured a finger during Week 7 but “should be fine.” (Tom Pelissero)

Ravens

Ravens HC John Harbaugh admitted that WR Breshard Perriman‘s learning curve has gone slower than he has hoped but still intends on getting him up to speed.

“I told him, ‘I just am impatient. You have all this talent, and there is a lot to learn, but I just want to speed the curve up,'” Harbaugh said, via Jeff Zrebeic of The Baltimore Sun. “Obviously, he said that he could not agree more. We just have to keep chasing it. It is going to happen, and let’s try to make it happen sooner rather than later.”
