Ravens Win Over Titans Clouded by Lamar Jackson Ankle Injury

Jackson’s uncertain ankle status could determine Baltimore’s quarterback plan for its Oct. 11 trip to Atlanta.

Overview

  • A sack on the final play of the first half on Oct. 4 left Jackson with a left-ankle injury that removed him from the game and sent backup Tyler Huntley into the second half.
  • Early reports differ on Jackson’s recovery outlook as the team schedules further testing, with some outlets calling him day-to-day and others describing his status as week-to-week pending an MRI and evaluation.
  • The 24-18 victory was overshadowed by 13 penalties for 131 yards, a total head coach Jesse Minter called "obviously unacceptable," and which continued a season-long trend of self-inflicted setbacks.
  • Huntley completed key passes to preserve the win but Baltimore’s offense did not score after halftime, a performance that raised questions about in-game adjustments and play-calling.
  • Several other Ravens left Sunday’s game with injuries and Jackson’s possible absence would test Baltimore’s depth because the team’s record falls sharply without him, affecting short-term plans for Week 5.
