Lamar Jackson’s Ankle Has Him Sidelined Again, And Tyler Huntley Is The Man For Ravens vs. Browns

Lamar Jackson is officially out of Friday’s practice, and yeah, that means he’s probably gonna miss his second straight game because of that ankle injury. This is a huge hit for the Ravens as they gear up to face a division rival.

Jackson’s Ankle Still A Major Problem For The Ravens

So, what’s up with Lamar? That ankle injury he picked up back on October 4th is still dogging him, bad. He hasn’t hit the practice field since then, and Friday was no different, with multiple reporters seeing him sidelined during the portion open to media. Coach Jesse Minter threw out the idea that Jackson *could* play the Week 6 matchup against the Browns without practicing, but let’s be real, the smart money is on Tyler Huntley being behind center. It just seems more likely.

Huntley Stepping Up For A Big Division Game

Good thing for the Ravens, Huntley showed up last week when they beat the Falcons. He went 24-for-32 on passes, slung for 201 yards, two touchdowns, and zero picks. Plus, he added 20 yards and a TD on six carries on the ground. That’s a solid stat line, man. Now he’s gotta do it again, stepping into a huge game against a division rival, the Browns. This isn’t just another game, it’s a statement for the whole team.

Other Key Players Out Of Practice Too

It’s not just Lamar sidelined, either. The Ravens are dealing with a few other hits heading into the weekend. Left tackle Ronnie Stanley, tight end Matt Hibner, and defensive linemen Calais Campbell and Broderick Washington also sat out Friday’s practice. That’s a tough blow on both sides of the ball right before a critical division game. Coach Minter is slated to address the media after practice, and the Ravens will issue their final injury report with game statuses later on Friday. But right now, it’s clear: Tyler Huntley is prepping to lead the charge into what’s gonna be a super important Week 6 clash against the Browns.
