Ravens QB Lamar Jackson Posts 1-Word Reaction to Injury Speculation
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson injured his ankle near the end of the first half of Sunday's matchup against Tennessee.
In a recent NFL game, the Baltimore Ravens secured a 24-18 win over the Tennessee Titans, securing their record at 3-1 and solidifying their position as the second team in the AFC North behind the Cleveland Browns. However, the victory came with a concern regarding their star quarterback, Lamar Jackson, who left the game before halftime and did not return.
Backup Tyler Huntley took over for the rest of the match. Later, it was revealed that Jackson was seen leaving the stadium in a walking boot and that he is set to undergo an MRI on his ankle to assess the severity of the injury. The incident occurred during the final offensive play of the first half, when Titans' defensive end Jermaine Johnson sacked Jackson, landing on the quarterback's leg.
Jackson had thrown for 222 yards and two touchdowns before his exit. Huntley stepped in and completed eight of nine passes for 63 yards, adding 16 rushing yards, as Baltimore maintained their lead. The MRI results will determine whether Jackson will be available for the Ravens' upcoming Week 5 match against the Atlanta Falcons. Huntley, Jackson's backup, is poised to start the next game if the former MVP is ruled out.
The Ravens are hopeful for a positive MRI outcome after Jackson's performance helped them maintain a 24-7 advantage before his departure.
