Overview
- The Baltimore Ravens formally listed Lamar Jackson out for Sunday’s game after he failed to practice this week, marking a second consecutive absence for the ankle injury first suffered in Week 4.
- Tyler Huntley will start at quarterback and took first-team reps in practice after leading Baltimore to a 30-23 overtime win in Week 5 with three touchdown throws.
- The Ravens also ruled out center Cam Jurgens with a concussion, tight end Matthew Hibner with a hand injury, and defensive tackle Broderick Washington with an ankle issue, thinning the roster for Cleveland.
- NFL Network reporting described Jackson’s sprain as atypical and said the team waited to see how he progressed before making the availability call, underlining the medical uncertainty around his timeline.
- Cleveland’s players and coaches say they are preparing for Huntley and Baltimore’s game plan, and the club’s willingness to be patient with Jackson gives the Ravens short-term roster flexibility and potential long-term health benefits for their franchise quarterback.
