Overview
- Initial reports said Jackson did not practice on Wednesday, but coach Jesse Minter later confirmed he took part in a limited role and called the problem small.
- The Ravens officially placed Jackson on Wednesday’s injury report with a back designation, which makes his full participation later in the week the key indicator for availability.
- Jackson told reporters he expects to play Sunday, so the team remains cautiously optimistic about his Week 4 status against the Tennessee Titans.
- Baltimore’s offensive-line health is a larger structural concern after center Jovaughn Gwyn reportedly suffered a fractured fibula and Ethan Pocic sat out, prompting the team to add veteran depth and consider rookie Vega Ioane at center.
- The coaching staff must balance protecting Jackson with game prep because a limited quarterback and a weakened interior line would matter most against the Titans’ strong defensive front led by Jeffery Simmons.
