Ravens Give Encouraging Lamar Jackson Injury Update After Week 5 Win
Baltimore Ravens head coach Jesse Minter provided an encouraging injury update on superstar quarterback Lamar Jackson.
The Baltimore Ravens provided encouraging news about their star quarterback Lamar Jackson following their Week 5 victory over the Atlanta Falcons. Jackson had been sidelined for the game due to a left ankle injury sustained during the first half of their Week 4 triumph against the Tennessee Titans. He was replaced by backup quarterback Tyler Huntley, who delivered an impressive performance, completing 24 out of 32 passes for 201 yards and two touchdowns, as well as rushing for the game-winning score in overtime.
While Huntley's heroics were commendable, the Ravens remain eager to see Jackson back on the field. Coach Jesse Minter shared positive updates on Jackson's condition during a Monday press conference, stating that the injury-prone quarterback is "definitely doing better" with his sprained left ankle. Minter anticipates that the team will have more clarity on Jackson's status by the middle of the week, although it remains unclear if he will participate in practice on Wednesday.
The 4-1 Ravens will next take on their division rival Cleveland Browns in Week 6, kicking off on Sunday.
