Overview
- Jackson suffered an ankle injury on Sunday and did not practice on Wednesday or show for Thursday's walkthrough as the team monitors his recovery.
- Head coach Jesse Minter said the Ravens will wait until later in the week to make a decision and that Jackson will play only when he is ready.
- If Jackson cannot go, Tyler Huntley is expected to start and Minter says the offense would not require major schematic changes with Huntley taking snaps.
- Huntley relieved Jackson last week and completed 8-of-9 passes for 63 yards while the Ravens are 5-6 all-time in games he has started, a factor that shapes Baltimore's depth outlook.
- Jackson's availability is the key variable for Sunday night because his absence would lower the Ravens' ceiling and analysts view it as improving the Falcons' chances; Friday's injury report and any practice work will offer the clearest update.
