Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson sat out Thursday’s practice with an ankle injury, according to an official update from BaltimoreRavens.com. Jackson’s absence leaves his status uncertain for the upcoming game, with the quarterback yet to participate in practice this week.
Jackson's continued sidelining with the ankle issue means he is likely to miss his second consecutive game unless he returns to the field Friday. The timing puts the Ravens in a difficult spot as they prepare for their next matchup without their starting quarterback.
In Jackson’s absence, backup Tyler Huntley is expected to step up as the team's QB2 option. Huntley has previously filled in for Jackson this season and will likely start if Jackson remains out. The Ravens have not provided further details on Jackson’s condition or potential return timeline.
The injury comes at a challenging point in the season, with the Ravens relying on Huntley to lead the offense if Jackson cannot go. BaltimoreRavens.com confirmed Jackson did not participate in practice on October 15, maintaining his status as questionable for the next game.
No new updates have emerged since the announcement, leaving fans and analysts awaiting Friday’s practice to gauge Jackson’s availability. The Ravens have not issued any official statements regarding his expected return or the severity of the ankle injury beyond confirming his absence from practice on Thursday.
