The 1-3 Baltimore Ravens are anticipated to be with out beginning quarterback Lamar Jackson after they play the 1-3 Houston Texans at M&T Financial institution Stadium on Sunday.
Per Brian Wacker of the Baltimore Solar, Jackson may miss the next two to 3 video games because of a hamstring harm that brought about him to exit the Ravens’ 37-20 loss to the Kansas Metropolis Chiefs in Week 4.
“Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is prone to miss Sunday’s recreation towards the visiting Houston Texans with a hamstring harm, two sources with direct data of the state of affairs confirmed to The Baltimore Solar on Tuesday,” Wacker wrote. “Given the character of the harm, he additionally may very well be out for as much as 2-3 weeks, one of many sources mentioned.”
Jackson will try and return to play towards the Texans. However the nature of Jackson’s harm sometimes retains gamers out for 2 to 4 weeks. Following Sunday’s recreation, the Ravens play the Los Angeles Rams in Week 6, have a bye in Week 7, and host the Chicago Bears in Week 8.
If Jackson can not begin, backup quarterback Cooper Rush is predicted to get the nod towards Houston. The veteran backup went 9-of-13 passing for 52 yards towards the Chiefs.
It is all the time unlucky to be with out your beginning quarterback, however that is significantly poor timing for the Ravens. Baltimore’s postseason hopes cling within the steadiness within the subsequent few video games as they attempt to get again to .500 after taking part in robust competitors within the Buffalo Payments, Detroit Lions and Chiefs in September.
Rush did not present a spark for the Ravens offense when he was inserted into Sunday’s recreation. Baltimore may very well be in deep trouble if Jackson has to overlook their contest towards the 3-1 Rams in Week 6.
