Baltimore Ravens tight end Dennis Pitta will have to wait a little longer to make an improbable comeback from consecutive major hip injuries.

Pitta was placed on the physically unable to perform list Tuesday, ensuring he won't be eligible to play until Week 7 at the earliest.

"There's more to it than just, 'Can he play?'" head coach John Harbaugh said recently. "Should he play? Will he be cleared to play? And what is being cleared to play entail in terms of liability and things like that? There's a lot to it that has to be worked out."

Pitta hasn't participated in a contact practice since fracturing his hip last September.
