OWINGS MILLS, Md. – Uncertainty surrounds Lamar Jackson again, the star quarterback of the Baltimore Ravens, who is dealing with a new injury. For the second consecutive week, Jackson did not participate in Wednesday’s training. This time, the injury he is suffering from is in his ankle. Last week, Jackson missed Wednesday’s practice due to knee discomfort, but returned to practice the following two days and played in the 23-16 victory against the Cleveland Browns.
Ravens coach John Harbaugh simply said the situation is similar to last week’s. Harbaugh offered no further details on Jackson’s status, explaining that it wasn’t best for him to practice today and that they would evaluate his situation on Thursday. This season, Jackson has been sacked an average of 3.2 times per game, the highest figure of his eight-year career. In Sunday’s game, the Browns sacked him five times, including four sacks by Myles Garrett. The season has been complicated for Jackson, who has already missed three games due to a hamstring injury. In total, he has missed eight practices this season. Jackson is looking to break a streak of two games in which he has completed 57.4% of his passes, averaging 184.5 passing yards. On Sunday, he did not throw any touchdown passes and suffered two interceptions, with a passer rating of 47.6, the second-worst of his career.Yes, it’s a similar situation.

The Ravens (5-5), who have won four consecutive games, will host the New York Jets (2-8) on Sunday.Lamar is winning games. Finding ways to win the game: that’s what counts; that’s what matters. I think Lamar did a great job in both games playing that kind of winning football.
John Harbaugh, Ravens coach
