However despite varying reports speculating on the severity of Lewis' injury, Baltimore coach John Harbaugh offered some insight to Peter King of Sports Illustrated and NBC's Football Night in America on Sunday night.

There's a "realistic chance" Lewis could play on Thanksgiving Harbaugh reportedly told King. Harbaugh's brother, Jim, and his 9-1 San Francisco 49ers will be in Baltimore that night. So will 49ers all-pro ILB Patrick Willis, whom many consider Lewis' heir as the best inside backer in the league.

However King relayed another far more important tidbit for fans of the first-place Ravens.

Said King via Harbaugh: There is "no possibility that Ray Lewis will miss the rest of the season."
