Ravens Say Lamar Jackson 'Fine' After Foot Stepped On at Practice

The two-time MVP has been held out of preseason games under a cautious usage plan.

Overview

  • The contact occurred about 80 minutes into 11-on-11 work during a drop-back, according to on-site reporting.
  • Jackson stayed in for two throws after the tumble, completing a deep pass to rookie LaJohntay Wester before an incompletion to Keaton Mitchell.
  • He then walked to the team facility with strength and conditioning coordinator Scott Elliott, briefly speaking with executive vice president Ozzie Newsome as athletic trainers followed.
  • Team practice rules prohibit defensive players from contacting quarterbacks during training camp sessions.
  • Jackson has been healthy throughout camp aside from an Aug. 4 excused absence, was not expected to play against Washington this weekend, and the season opener is Sept. 7 at Buffalo.
