Ravens Announce Bad Lamar Jackson News Before Falcons Game
Lamar Jackson has officially been ruled out for the Baltimore Ravens' Week 5 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.
The Baltimore Ravens have announced that star quarterback Lamar Jackson will be ruled out for their upcoming Week 5 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons due to an ankle injury sustained during their Week 4 game against the Tennessee Titans. Coach Jesse Minter confirmed the news to ESPN's Ian Rapoport, effectively ending hopes of Jackson playing in the crucial game.
This significant loss for the Ravens, who are currently tied atop the AFC North with the Cleveland Browns, underscores the importance of Jackson's role in their offense. Tyler Huntley, a seven-year NFL veteran who played in the team's last game, will step in as the starting quarterback against the Falcons. Over the course of the season, Jackson has been instrumental to the Ravens, throwing for 967 yards and four touchdowns in just four games, following a stellar performance in the previous season where he led the league with 21 touchdowns and 2,549 passing yards.
