Ravens Rule Out Lamar Jackson With Back Injury in Sunday Night Loss to Patriots

The two-time MVP's latest setback capped a season of nagging ailments that have strained Baltimore's push in the AFC North.

Overview

  • Jackson exited late in the second quarter after a 3-yard run when safety Craig Woodson’s knee hit his lower back; he was initially listed as questionable before being ruled out in the third quarter.
  • NBC reported Jackson was grimacing and struggled on the stadium stairs as he went to the locker room for evaluation.
  • Tyler Huntley took over at quarterback and finished the game as Baltimore fell 28-24 at M&T Bank Stadium.
  • Patriots rookie TreVeyon Henderson sustained a second-quarter head injury, was evaluated in the medical tent and locker room, and was downgraded to out at halftime.
  • With Pittsburgh’s win earlier Sunday, the Ravens’ defeat left them two games back in the AFC North with two to play, tightening a playoff path that already offered little margin.
