The Baltimore Ravens gained at least one advantage through the multiple postponements of its Week 12 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Ravens running backs J.K. Dobbins and Mark Ingram will be eligible for their team's game now that it's been moved from last Thursday to Wednesday at 3:40 p.m. ET, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport report.

Dobbins and Ingram tested positive for COVID-19 on Nov. 22. Players who test positive have to quarantine for a minimum of 10 days provided they don't return any more positive tests. Their isolation period ends Wednesday.

The highly anticipated AFC North matchup was initially pushed to Sunday and then Tuesday after the Ravens continued to return positive cases. It was finally rescheduled for Wednesday after Baltimore players expressed concerns about not having a day to practice before the game, according to Rapoport.

It has yet to be determined whether Ravens quarterback and 2019 NFL MVP Lamar Jackson will be available for Wednesday's contest. He was placed on the Ravens' COVID-19 list on Friday, but it isn't known whether Jackson tested positive or if he was deemed a high-risk close contact. Close contacts must sit out for at least five days.
