Overview

• Jackson missed Friday’s practice along with six other Ravens starters, making his availability against the Texans highly unlikely.
• Reporting indicates Jackson is not expected to play this week or next, with the team potentially waiting until after its Week 7 bye, though his status remains officially week-to-week.
• If Jackson sits, veteran Cooper Rush would start for Baltimore, and oddsmakers have the Ravens as slight home underdogs to Houston.
• Cincinnati remains without Joe Burrow following Grade 3 turf toe surgery and has scored 13 points over its last two games as Jake Browning has struggled and the run game ranks last.
• The Bengals got mixed updates: tight end Noah Fant returned to full practice and trends toward playing, while defensive end Shemar Stewart has yet to practice and appears unlikely to suit up; Jacksonville’s Travon Walker is day-to-day after wrist surgery with a chance to play Monday.
