Lamar Jackson Returns to Practice but Week-7 Status Remains Unclear

Limited reps on Thursday are being called progress with a final decision set to follow Friday practice pending medical clearance.

Overview

  • On Thursday, Jackson was in uniform and took limited reps at the start of practice, a step forward reported by multiple outlets.
  • Coaches described his work as encouraging yet cautious and said the team will base a return decision on Friday practice and medical clearance.
  • Baltimore’s offense has slipped without Jackson, producing just 10 points in a 13-10 loss to Cleveland that prompted an intensive film session.
  • Tyler Huntley has started in Jackson’s absence and completed 19-of-31 passes for 165 yards and a touchdown in the Cleveland game while also rushing 28 yards.
  • Jackson’s availability will shape game planning for Sunday’s AFC North meeting with Cincinnati and affect personnel choices after center Cam Jurgens cleared concussion protocol and other players remained limited.
