Ravens Rule Out Jackson for Week 6 Game
· Confirmed
In Short: The team's decision to rule out Jackson was made in his “best interest,” according to Minter.
Head coach Jesse Minter announced Friday that Jackson would not play Sunday against the Cleveland Browns due to an ankle injury suffered in Week 4.
Jackson, 29, will miss his 16th regular-season game since the start of the 2021 campaign for health-related reasons.
Tyler Huntley, who helped the Ravens to an overtime win over the Falcons in Week 5, will take over as the starting quarterback.
Linebacker Trey Hendrickson, who missed the last two games with a finger injury, is set to play on Sunday.
Wide receiver Ja’Kobi Lane’s status remains uncertain, with the team making a decision on Saturday.
Jackson’s absence marks the second consecutive week Huntley will start, following a brief stint with the team earlier this season.
Huntley is 5-6 in 11 starts for the Ravens over the last five years.
Jackson, who has appeared in four games this season, has thrown for 967 yards, six touchdowns, and one interception while completing 70.8 percent of his passes.
The Ravens' injury report on Thursday was encouraging, but Jackson's status remained uncertain until Friday's announcement.
Jackson's suspension from the league for striking a player during a postgame confrontation does not affect his current injury status.
The Ravens will face the Cleveland Browns on Sunday at 1 p.m.
In addition to Jackson, edge rusher Trey Hendrickson is also ruled out for the game.
