Lamar Jackson’s injury timeline could put Ravens in a bind for Week 5

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is in danger of missing the Week 5 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons due to an ankle injury sustained against the Tennessee Titans. According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Jackson has only an outside chance of playing on Sunday Night Football. While the injury is not expected to be long-term, Baltimore is still evaluating his status, and backup Tyler Huntley may start in his place.

Connor Burke of Ebony Bird argues that Baltimore should not rush Jackson back, highlighting concerns over offensive line vulnerabilities against Atlanta's defensive front. Burke also notes the surging Falcons offense, led by Michael Penix Jr. and Bijan Robinson, poses a significant threat if Baltimore is forced to operate without Jackson.
