Lamar Jackson Latest Injury Update: Ravens QB Misses Friday Practice, Tyler Huntley Likely to Start vs Browns

Lamar Jackson’s chances of returning against the Cleveland Browns have taken another hit.

The Baltimore Ravens quarterback was absent during the media-viewing portion of Friday’s practice, according to ESPN’s Jamison Hensley, putting Tyler Huntley in position to make his second consecutive start on Sunday, October 18.

Jackson has not practiced this week while recovering from a sprained left ankle.

Baltimore has yet to officially rule him out, but the lack of on-field preparation makes his availability increasingly uncertain.

What Happened to Lamar Jackson?

Jackson injured his left ankle during Baltimore’s October 4 victory over the Tennessee Titans and has not played since.

He missed last Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons, with Huntley stepping in to guide the Ravens to a 30-23 overtime victory.

Earlier this week, head coach Jesse Minter described Jackson as day-to-day and said the two-time NFL MVP was working hard to return.

The coaching staff has also indicated that Jackson could potentially play without practicing. However, Friday’s absence represents another setback in his push to face Cleveland.
