Baltimore Ravens CB Jimmy Smith to miss Pittsburgh Steelers clash

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Jimmy Smith will miss his second straight game after being ruled out of Sunday's AFC North showdown with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Shareece Wright is expected to draw into the starting lineup in place of Smith, who has been sidelined since sustaining a right ankle sprain in a 30-23 loss at the New England Patriots on Dec. 12.

Smith, 28, has recorded 32 tackles in 11 games this season and 221 in 74 career contests since being selected with the 27th overall pick of the 2011 draft.

Wide receiver Steve Smith is listed as questionable to play due to a thigh injury that occurred during the week. The veteran was limited in Thursday's practice before being a full participant in the next day's session.

The Steelers (9-5) can clinch the division title with a win on Sunday (4:30 p.m. ET) while the Ravens (8-6) can wrap up the AFC North with victories in each of their last two games. Baltimore faces division rival Cincinnati in Week 17.
