  "account": "Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson may have a sprained ankle after their 24-18 victory over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Jackson did not return for the second half of the game and was seen leaving the locker room in a walking boot. An MRI exam is scheduled for Monday to determine the extent of his injury. Although there is an \"outside\" chance Jackson could play against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, his recovery could also lead to a time loss. The injury is not considered long-term or requiring surgery. Tyler Huntley, who played admirably in Jackson's absence, would start if Jackson is unable to go in Week 5. Huntley had a stellar performance, going 8-of-9 passing for 63 yards and 16 rushing yards. If Jackson cannot play, head coach Jesse Minter said he does not know the likelihood of Jackson's participation and believes it won't be a lengthy absence. Jackson sustained the injury on a sack by Titans defensive end Jermaine Johnson in the first half. Jackson had an impressive game before the injury, completing 15-of-20 passes for 222 yards and two touchdowns, along with 20 rushing yards. If he sustains a 70.8% passing accuracy, it would be his career-high stat. So far, Jackson has thrown for 967 yards, 6 touchdowns, and 1 interception. The Ravens are currently tied with the Cleveland Browns at the top of the AFC North with a 3-1 record.",
