Lamar Jackson Day-to-Day After Missing Wednesday Practice

The Ravens will use the remainder of the week’s practices to decide his status for Sunday at Cleveland, with Tyler Huntley expected to start if Jackson is ruled out.

Overview

  • Ravens coach Jesse Minter said Wednesday that Jackson did not practice and is considered day-to-day as the team monitors his sprained left ankle.
  • The club will make a final availability call after watching Jackson in the remaining practices before naming him for Sunday’s game at Cleveland.
  • ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported there is a “realistic chance” Jackson could play on Sunday, but that report remains unconfirmed by the team.
  • Tyler Huntley has been the clear contingency, relieving Jackson in Week 4 and starting the Week 5 win over Atlanta when he threw for 201 yards, two touchdowns and ran for a score.
  • If Jackson plays with a limited ankle his mobility could be reduced and the Ravens may shift toward more pocket passing and running-game work, a change the team can absorb given its 4-1 start and lead in the AFC North.
