Ravens’ Lamar Jackson Out for Third Consecutive Game

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson will miss his third consecutive game on Sunday due to a hamstring injury. Initially listed as a full participant in practice on March 15, 2024, Jackson was later downgraded to limited participation. Sources indicate he is anticipated to return for the upcoming game against the Miami Dolphins on Thursday night.

Jackson was unable to compete this week, particularly with a short turnaround before the Thursday game. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the decision was made to prioritize Jackson’s health, ensuring he is ready for future games rather than risking further injury.

In Jackson’s absence, Tyler Huntley is set to start for the Ravens as they host the Chicago Bears. Huntley has experience stepping in for Jackson, having started five games last season for the Dolphins and achieving a record of 2-3. In those appearances, he completed 86 of 133 passes, resulting in five touchdowns.

Huntley also has a history with the Ravens, having started ten games in place of Jackson, including one playoff game. His notable performance earned him a spot in the Pro Bowl in 2022, showcasing his capability to lead the team during challenging circumstances.

As the Ravens prepare to face the Bears, the team will rely on Huntley’s experience and skills to navigate the ongoing challenges posed by Jackson’s injury. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see how the situation unfolds.
