Ravens Still Hope To Retain Lamar Jackson Long-Term
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) has not played since Week 14 and has already been ruled out for Sunday's Wild-Card matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. Although it seems unlikely that Jackson will see the field again this season, the Ravens reportedly still view the 26-year-old as their franchise signal-caller and intend to negotiate a long-term deal with him this offseason. If the two sides are unable to agree on a contract, Baltimore would be expected to franchise tag Jackson next season. His value to the team is clear as Jackson was voted as the league's MVP in 2019 and holds a 45-16 regular season record as a starter.
Jan 14, 2023 • 7:27 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Officially Out Versus Bengals
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) has officially been ruled out for the Wild Card game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Jackson missed each of the Ravens' final five games and despite speculation that he'd return in the playoffs, he won't suit up in the opening round. Tyler Huntley (shoulder/wrist) was a full participant in practice Friday but was listed as questionable. It's not safe to assume Huntley will definitely play, but there is a good chance. If Huntley can't go, Anthony Brown will make his second straight start. With Jackson out, continue to downgrade the outlooks of all Ravens' running backs and pass-catchers.
Jan 13, 2023 • 7:41 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Not Expected To Play Sunday
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) remained sidelined during Thursday's practice and is not expected to play in the wild-card game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday night. The 23-year-old took to social media to say that he's still dealing with inflammation in his knee after suffering a Grade 2 sprain of his PCL on Dec. 4. He mentioned that he wishes he could give 100% of himself, but can't right now. That being said, Jackson basically ruled himself out of this contest. Tyler Huntley (shoulder, wrist) was able to throw during practice on Thursday. Possibly, Huntley is able to suit up Sunday versus Cincinnati. Otherwise, Anthony Brown would be asked to make the start under center this weekend.
Jan 12, 2023 • 11:27 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Still Out, Tyler Huntley Makes Progress
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) missed another practice on Thursday, while backup Tyler Huntley (shoulder, wrist) was seen throwing in the portion of practice open to the media. Huntley was listed as limited on Wednesday but didn't throw at all, so this represents progress for him ahead of the wild-card matchup on Sunday night against the Cincinnati Bengals. Jackson hasn't practiced or played since suffering a PCL sprain on Dec. 4, so he's a long shot to play this weekend. Huntley was rested in the Week 18 regular season finale, but the Ravens are hoping he can start under center against Cincy. If Huntley cannot go, rookie Anthony Brown would be forced into another start, which isn't ideal for Baltimore's already struggling offense.
Jan 12, 2023 • 7:16 PM | RotoBallerStill No Lamar Jackson At Wednesday's Practice
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) remained sidelined at practice on Wednesday, while backup Tyler Huntley (shoulder) was mostly going through the motions in warmups and didn't attempt a pass. Rookie Anthony Brown saw most of the repetitions like he did last week. Jackson hasn't played or practiced since spraining the PCL in his left knee on Dec. 4, and he's facing an uphill battle to play against the Cincinnati Bengals in the wild-card game this Sunday night. Huntley, who sat out the Week 18 regular season finale, could also be in danger of missing this weekend's game while battling a sprained right shoulder. It will be hard to get excited for any of the Ravens offensive skill players in fantasy if Brown is forced to make another start.
Jan 11, 2023 • 8:07 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Facing Uphill Battle To Play This Weekend
It's not looking good for Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson's (knee) chances of playing on wild-card weekend this Sunday night against the Cincinnati Bengals, according to sources. Jackson is fighting an uphill battle to play and has missed the last five games after spraining his left PCL on Dec. 4. He has tried to do some work on his injured knee but just hasn't felt right to this point. Jackson has not practiced at all since getting hurt over a month ago, so even if he were to return against Cincy this weekend, there's a good chance he'd let fantasy managers down. Backup Tyler Huntley (shoulder, wrist) sat out the Week 18 regular season finale to get additional rest, but he'll be the likely starter on Sunday if Jackson is officially ruled out.
Jan 11, 2023 • 5:14 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson's Availability Up In The Air
When asked about Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson's (knee) availability for the playoffs, head coach John Harbaugh said, "I don't really have an update right now to share with you." An unnamed player said that even if Jackson gets back on the field for the playoffs -- Baltimore plays at the Cincinnati Bengals this Sunday in the wild-card round -- he's unlikely to be the normal Lamar Jackson in terms of his physical abilities while battling a Grade 2 PCL sprain. The 26-year-old QB hasn't played since getting hurt in Week 13, and given the long layoff, it's unrealistic to expect him to come back in right away and flourish if he's active this weekend. Backup Tyler Huntley (shoulder) took the Week 18 regular season finale off, but he's expected to get the start this weekend if Jackson is ruled out.
Jan 11, 2023 • 1:02 AM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Likely To Play In Postseason
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) has already been ruled out for Sunday's Week 18 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. The 26-year-old has not practiced in a month and continues to have swelling in his knee. Despite that, the Ravens believe there is a strong chance that Jackson starts during their wild-card game next weekend. This seems shocking considering Jackson hasn't been on the field in quite some time, but is great news for the Ravens offense. We'll have to wait and see how Jackson feels during the next week before the Ravens make a final decision.
Jan 7, 2023 • 11:25 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Likely To Be In Postseason
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) has already been ruled out for Sunday's Week 18 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. The 26-year-old has not practiced in a month and continues to have swelling in his knee. Despite that, the Ravens believe there is a strong chance that Jackson starts during their wild-card game next weekend. This seems shocking considering Jackson hasn't been on the field in quite some time, but is great news for the Ravens offense. We'll have to wait and see how Jackson feels during the next week before the Ravens make a final decision.
Jan 7, 2023 • 11:25 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Ruled Out Against Bengals
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) is slated to miss his fifth straight game as he's officially been ruled out for the contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Ravens have already clinched a playoff berth, so they're likely just resting Jackson one more week to be ready for the postseason. Tyler Huntley will draw his fifth start of the season if he can play (didn't throw in practice this week), but he's a weak quarterback DFS play against a strong Bengals defense. Huntley has posted just three touchdowns in five games he's appeared in, so there are simply better DFS bargains this week.
Jan 6, 2023 • 6:30 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Misses 14th Straight Practice
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) was absent for his 14th straight practice on Thursday. Meanwhile, Tyler Huntley (shoulder, wrist) didn't throw during the portion of practice open to the media. Huntley is likely to be listed as limited for the second straight day. Because the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals aren't going to finish their Week 17 game against the Buffalo Bills, it would mean that the Ravens have no shot at winning the AFC North division by beating Cincy in the Week 18 regular season finale. Therefore, it's highly unlikely that we'll see Jackson return this weekend, and his availability for the playoffs at this point is also in question. Huntley is trending toward making his fifth straight start. He has very limited upside as a low-end QB2 in a non-existent passing attack.
Jan 5, 2023 • 7:24 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Remains Absent From Practice
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) initially suffered a PCL sprain on Dec. 4 against the Denver Broncos, and a month later on Wednesday, Jan. 4, he's still missing from practice. Baltimore is in a unique situation for the Week 18 regular season finale against the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals. If the Bengals don't finish their postponed Monday night game against the Buffalo Bills, the Bengals will clinch the NFC North division, making Sunday's tilt mostly meaningless for Baltimore. In that case, it would make sense to rest Jackson for another week heading into the playoffs, unless the team wants to get him some work in after such a long layoff. As of right now, the 25-year-old looks set to miss yet another game, with backup Tyler Huntley getting another start in the Ravens' lackluster passing attack.
Jan 4, 2023 • 8:35 PM | RotoBallerRavens Don't Know If Lamar Jackson Will Practice This Week
The Baltimore Ravens don't know whether quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) will be ready to play in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, which could be for the AFC North title. Jackson has been out four straight games due to a PCL sprain on Dec. 4 against the Denver Broncos, and head coach John Harbaugh said he's unsure if Jackson will return to practice this week. Harbaugh wouldn't answer if Jackson's status for the playoffs would be in jeopardy if he doesn't practice this week. Even if he doesn't play in Week 18, the Ravens would like to see Jackson return to practice this week. Backup Tyler Huntley has struggled to move the offense consistently in Jackson's absence, but he also has very little to work with outside of tight end Mark Andrews in the passing attack. Fantasy managers still playing for a championship shouldn't expect Jackson to return this weekend.
Jan 2, 2023 • 10:03 PM | RotoBallerRavens Won't Rush Lamar Jackson Back
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) won't be rushed back as he recovers from a PCL sprain. So far, Jackson has missed parts of four games and doesn't have an exact timetable for his return. Fortunately for the Ravens, they have already secured a playoff berth, so they can afford to be cautious with Jackson. In the meantime, Tyler Huntley will continue to start under center, ranking as a QB2 in fantasy football.
Jan 1, 2023 • 5:43 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Officially Out Against Steelers
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) has officially been ruled out for the game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football, marking his fourth straight contest out of action. Tyler Huntley will start again for Baltimore, but since he only has one touchdown and just 23 rushing yards in his three starts, he remains off the fantasy radar. It's becoming more and more likely that Jackson won't return until the Wild Card round of the NFL playoffs, so fantasy managers in leagues that extend to Week 18 should be ready to go without him one final time.
Dec 30, 2022 • 8:01 PM | RotoBallerRavens To Resume Negotiations With Lamar Jackson
The Baltimore Ravens will reportedly resume long-term contract negotiations with quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) after the 2023 season. Jackson bet on himself without a long-term deal locked up heading into the 2022 season, and he's now missed a month due to a sprained PCL in his knee that he suffered in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos. He has yet to return to practice and looks likely to miss another game this Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite his injury at the end of the year for the second straight season, Jackson remains one of the best dual-threat signal-callers in the NFL, although he wasn't exactly lighting it up before he suffered the knee injury.
Dec 30, 2022 • 5:05 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Misses 11th Straight Practice
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) missed his 11th straight practice on Thursday. It looks like backup Tyler Huntley will start under center for the fourth straight game in Week 17 against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football. At this point, Jackson is unlikely to play until the postseason after spraining his knee in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos. With limited weapons in the passing game (that's putting it nicely), Huntley has predictably struggled to do much in Jackson's absence in the last three games. The 24-year-old has completed just 57.6 percent of his 59 pass attempts for 341 yards, one touchdown and an interception while carrying the ball 26 times for 72 yards. Huntley will be a low-upside, low-end QB2 in superflex leagues on Sunday night.
Dec 29, 2022 • 7:28 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Misses 10th Straight Practice
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) missed his 10th straight practice on Wednesday. As of right now, it looks like backup Tyler Huntley will make another start this weekend against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night. Huntley would be making his fourth straight start in place of Jackson, who is recovering from a knee sprain. The 25-year-old Jackson is expected to return to practice at some point this week, but that doesn't mean he'll play in Week 16, and fantasy managers won't be able to trust him with the game being on Sunday night. Huntley hasn't produced much at all for fantasy managers in two-QB leagues, as he hasn't gone over 138 yards passing in all three of his starts and has just one touchdown pass.
Dec 28, 2022 • 8:16 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Ruled Out, Tyler Huntley To Start Again
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) has been ruled out in Week 16 against the Atlanta Falcons for the third straight game. Tyler Huntley (shoulder) has been cleared to play and will make another start on Christmas Eve, according to head coach John Harbaugh. Jackson hasn't been able to practice since spraining his PCL in Week 13, and it remains to be seen if he'll be able to return next week. Huntley is dealing with a right shoulder issue, but he's good to go and will once again lead Baltimore's offense. The weather won't be ideal for passing, and Huntley will also be without No. 1 wideout Devin Duvernay (foot), who was placed on Injured Reserve this week. Expect Baltimore to lean on running back J.K. Dobbins and the ground game against Atlanta, making Huntley a low-upside, low-end QB2 in fantasy.
Dec 22, 2022 • 7:03 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Once Again Not At Practice
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) was not at practice on Wednesday. The superstar quarterback has now missed eight straight practices because of the knee injury. He last played in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos before leaving early with a sprained PCL. Jackson has missed the past two games and likely will miss a third one on Saturday against the Atlanta Falcons. If the superstar quarterback is out again this week, Tyler Huntley will get his third straight start for the Ravens. The backup quarterback has 413 passing yards and 27.2 fantasy points this season, filling in for Jackson.
Dec 21, 2022 • 7:33 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson, J.K. Dobbins Absent Tuesday
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) and running back J.K. Dobbins (undisclosed) were not seen at the portion of practice open to the media on Tuesday. For Jackson, it's the seventh straight missed practice after he sprained his left knee in Week 13. It was reported last weekend that Baltimore was hoping that the 25-year-old dual-threat QB could return in Week 16 to face the Atlanta Falcons on Saturday, but the team is going to hold Jackson's status very close to their vest this week for competitive reasons. He'll have to get back on the field this week in order to have a shot at playing. If not, Tyler Huntley would make his third straight start. It's unclear if Dobbins is dealing with an injury or just being rested. Stay tuned for more details on his status.
Dec 20, 2022 • 7:21 PM | RotoBallerNo Updates On Lamar Jackson's Status
Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh essentially said he's not going to give any updates on quarterback Lamar Jackson's (knee) status leading up to the Week 16 game against the Atlanta Falcons on Saturday. "I think I'm going to climb behind the barricade of it's probably not the time to put a lot of information out there on our injuries, just for competitive purposes," Harbaugh said. "So, we're just going to let that develop and see where we go with it and not try to walk the tight rope of what we say." Jackson has missed the last two games with a knee sprain, but reports over the weekend suggested the Ravens were hopeful that he'd return in Week 16. Jackson would return to being a a QB1 in fantasy if he's active against Atlanta, but there's still a possibility that backup Tyler Huntley could make his third straight start. We'll know more later in the week.
Dec 19, 2022 • 11:10 PM | RotoBallerRavens Hope Lamar Jackson Will Return Next Week
The Baltimore Ravens anticipate quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) returning to practice next week and remain hopeful that he can return from a two-game absence to play in Week 16 against the Atlanta Falcons next Saturday. Jackson suffered a sprained PCL in his knee in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos and hasn't played since. That would be great news for fantasy managers that advance to the semifinals matchup in their playoff bracket. With Jackson out again this Saturday against the Cleveland Browns, Tyler Huntley will make his second straight start after leaving early due to a concussion last Sunday. Huntley can also pick up chunk gains with his legs like Jackson, but he'll be a low-end QB2 option for fantasy managers in a Ravens offense that will likely lean on their running backs in this one.
Dec 17, 2022 • 5:35 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Officially Ruled Out
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) didn't practice all week and has officially been ruled out for Week 15 against the Cleveland Browns on Saturday. It will be Jackson's second straight absence due to a knee sprain suffered in Week 13. It remains to be seen if the 25-year-old dual-threat signal-caller will be able to return for a Week 16 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons on Saturday. Tyler Huntley suffered a concussion in the Week 14 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, but he's since cleared the league's protocols and will make his second straight start on Saturday against the Browns. Huntley will profile as a low-end QB2 in superflex leagues against Cleveland.
Dec 15, 2022 • 7:32 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Still Sidelined At Practice
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) missed another day of practice on Wednesday. It's Jackson's second missed practice of the week, and he hasn't seen the practice field since spraining his knee in Week 13. Barring a miraculous recovery in just a couple of days, the 25-year-old dual-threat QB is trending toward missing his second straight game on Saturday against the Cleveland Browns. Backup Tyler Huntley (concussion) was also hurt in the Week 14 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, but he was limited on Tuesday and has a shot to clear the league's concussion protocol and play against the Browns. If Huntley isn't cleared, rookie Anthony Brown would be in line to make his first career NFL start.
Dec 14, 2022 • 8:33 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Not Present On Tuesday
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) was not present for the portion of practice open to the media on Tuesday, which would mark his fourth straight missed practice. Jackson is dealing with a sprained knee and missed the Week 14 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. He'll need to get back on the field at some point this week to have a shot at suiting up for fantasy managers in the first week of the playoffs in a Week 15 matchup against the Cleveland Browns on Saturday. And with Tyler Huntley suffering a concussion on Sunday, it's possible that rookie Anthony Brown makes his first career start this weekend against Cleveland, which would be a big downgrade for all of the Ravens' offensive skill players.
Dec 14, 2022 • 12:18 AM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Officially Out For Week 14
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) has been officially ruled out for the Week 14 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. This shouldn't come as a surprise to many with Jackson considered doubtful coming into this game. It sounds like the organization is targeting a Week 16 return for Jackson. In the meantime, Tyler Huntley will take over under center for the Ravens. He has shown he is fully capable of running this offense and should be considered a high-end QB2 for this Week 14 matchup.
Dec 11, 2022 • 4:42 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Might Not Return Until Week 16
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) may not play again until Week 16, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. The former MVP is listed as doubtful for this Sunday's game against the Steelers after spanning his PCL in Week 13, and there is already pessimism about his availability for next week's clash with the Browns. Thus, Schefter indicates that the Ravens are targeting Week 16 (versus Atlanta Falcons on Dec. 24) as a realistic return for Jackson. Even if he does return on Christmas Eve, Jackson may not be at full strength for several weeks thereafter. In the meantime, Tyler Huntley will operate as the Ravens' quarterback, ranking as a high-end QB2 in fantasy football.
Dec 11, 2022 • 1:21 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Doubtful To Face Steelers
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) is officially listed as doubtful to face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 14. John Harbaugh said he expects Tyler Huntley to start on Sunday, and listing him as doubtful instead of "out" feels like a strategic tactic for the Ravens to force the Steelers into considering the possibility he might play. Jackson's recent injury update suggests he'll almost certainly be out, but maybe there's an extremely low chance he suits up. Huntley is a top streaming candidate against a struggling Pittsburgh defense.
Dec 9, 2022 • 7:40 PM | RotoBallerTyler Huntley Expected To Start Sunday
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley is expected to start against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the absence of Lamar Jackson (knee). Huntley posted a 35-point fantasy performance last season and has real rushing upside, so his fantasy outlook is brighter than some may think. The Steelers have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks thus far, and even though the Ravens lack high-end pass-catchers, it's well-known rushing quarterbacks can still pay off. It's unknown exactly how long Jackson will be out but Huntley should be a serious streaming candidate for as long as that is.
Dec 9, 2022 • 6:25 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Misses Another Practice Thursday
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) missed his second straight day of practice this week on Thursday. Jackson sprained his left PCL in the Week 13 win over the Denver Broncos and is "less likely" to play this Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to head coach John Harbaugh. Fantasy managers should fully expect the 25-year-old dual-threat signal-caller to sit out this weekend with an eye on returning in Week 15 against the Cleveland Browns. Tyler Huntley can also pick up chunk gains with his legs and will be in play as a QB2 for managers in superflex fantasy leagues. Huntley went 27-for-32 for 187 yards, no touchdowns and an interception while carrying the ball 10 times for 41 yards and a TD in relief of Jackson last week.
Dec 8, 2022 • 7:23 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Not Seen At Wednesday's Practice
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) was not seen at the portion of Wednesday's practice that was open to the media. Jackson sprained his PCL in the Week 13 win over the Denver Broncos and is "less likely" to play in Week 14 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, so it's not much of a surprise that he's not on the practice field. There's a good chance that the 25-year-old dual-threat signal-caller won't practice at all this week before officially being ruled out for Sunday's game. His fantasy managers are just hoping that he'll be available to return once the fantasy playoffs begin in Week 15 in most leagues. If Jackson is officially ruled out this weekend, as expected, backup Tyler Huntley will get the start and will be in play in two-QB leagues for his rushing abilities.
Dec 7, 2022 • 8:12 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Dealing With PCL Knee Sprain
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) suffered a sprained left PCL in the Week 13 win over the Denver Broncos, according to leagues sources. PCL injuries often sideline players one to three weeks, and head coach John Harbaugh already has said that Jackson is "less likely" to play in Week 14 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Fantasy managers should already be benching Jackson for this weekend, and there's a chance he'll miss additional time. With the fantasy playoffs beginning in Week 15 in most leagues this year, this is terrible timing for the high-end QB1. Backup Tyler Huntley will get another start this Sunday, and he'll have some QB2 appeal because of his rushing abilities.
Dec 6, 2022 • 7:01 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Week-To-Week With Knee Injury
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) is being called "week-to-week" and head coach John Harbaugh said he is "less likely to play" in Week 14 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Tyler Huntley will draw the start in his absence. Last season, Huntley had a 35-point fantasy outing and he has real rushing upside, so he's a must-pick-up in two-quarterback and Superflex leagues. Even in single-quarterback leagues, he should be on the fantasy radar as a high-end streamer against the Steelers defense that has allowed the ninth-most fantasy points per game this season. Jackson's fantasy managers will have to hope he is back in time for the fantasy football playoffs.
Dec 5, 2022 • 7:45 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Could Miss Time With Knee Sprain
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) is feared to have suffered a knee sprain in the Week 13 win over the Denver Broncos that could cause him to miss some time. Head coach John Harbaugh said that Jackson's injury isn't season-ending, so we should see him again this year, but it remains to be seen how much time he might miss. Jackson is going to undergo an MRI exam on Monday. Fantasy managers need to prepare for the possibility that the 25-year-old dual-threat QB misses a few games. Tyler Huntley replaced Jackson on Sunday and went 27-for-32 for 187 yards, no touchdowns and an interception in the win over Denver. He also carried the ball 10 times for 41 yards and a score. Huntley will be in play in superflex leagues if he makes any starts for Baltimore.
Dec 5, 2022 • 5:00 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Could Miss Time
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) didn't return on Sunday versus the Broncos. Fortunately, the knee injury he suffered won't keep him out for the rest of the year. However, head coach John Harbaugh couldn't say for certain how long he'd be out for. That said, Jackson will undergo more testing on Monday, although there's a chance he won't play in Week 14 against Pittsburgh. If that's the case, Tyler Huntley, who threw for 187 yards and a pick while adding 10 carries for 41 yards in Week 13, is expected to remain under center.
Dec 5, 2022 • 12:08 AM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Officially Ruled Out Sunday
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Week 13 against the Denver Broncos. Tyler Huntley will continue to lead the team in his absence. Jackson finishes the day with 11 passing yards, nine rushing yards, and two sacks. The mobile 25-year-old will have one week to recover before next Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Dec 4, 2022 • 7:39 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Questionable To Return Sunday
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) is questionable to return against the Denver Broncos in Week 13. Tyler Huntley has entered in his place. Jackson exits with 11 passing yards, nine rushing yards, and two sacks. Baltimore is still in good hands with Huntley, who totaled 1,042 passing yards, three passing touchdowns, four interceptions, 294 rushing yards, and two rushing touchdowns through the bulk of five outings last season.
Dec 4, 2022 • 6:45 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson A Must-Start QB1 In Week 13
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (quadriceps) hasn't had the type of season many believed he would. Regardless, he still finds himself as the overall QB5 at his position. He is a unique talent with skills that not many others do not have. Jackson can produce for fantasy managers through the air and on the ground. In Sunday's loss to the Jaguars, he threw for 254 yards and a touchdown, while adding 89 rushing yards. His 25 fantasy points were his second-highest total since Week 3. He is facing a tough Broncos defense in Week 13, but he is a QB1 regardless of the opponent. Jackson was limited in practice earlier in the week, but he's not on the final injury report and is good to go for Sunday.
Dec 2, 2022 • 10:16 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Puts In Full Practice Thursday
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (quadriceps) was officially a full participant in practice on Thursday. Jackson was unable to finish Wednesday's practice due to a quadriceps injury, but it's a great sign that he didn't have any restrictions a day later. The 25-year-old dual-threat signal-caller shouldn't have any problems playing this Sunday against the Denver Broncos, where he'll be a must-start QB1 for fantasy managers. Jackson has left something to be desired on a weekly basis at the QB position in fantasy, but he still ranks as the overall QB5 and is second in the NFL in rushing yards at his position. The Broncos defense isn't the easiest matchup for opposing QBs, but fantasy managers shouldn't be benching Jackson.
Dec 2, 2022 • 12:21 AM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Takes Part In Thursday's Practice
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (quadriceps) returned to practice on Thursday after he did not finish Wednesday's session due to a quadriceps injury. Jackson missed the first 15 minutes of individual drills on Thursday before jogging out onto the field. The 25-year-old dual-threat QB is likely to be limited again on Thursday, but he's unlikely to miss the Week 13 game against the Denver Broncos on Sunday. It's an injury worth keeping an eye on, but if active, Jackson will remain a must-start QB1 in fantasy despite a tough matchup. On the season, Jackson checks in as the QB5 in fantasy scoring with 2,231 passing yards, 17 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He ranks second in the NFL with 755 rushing yards and three touchdowns.
Dec 1, 2022 • 7:32 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Limited In Wednesday's Practice
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (quad) was listed as a limited participant in the team's practice on Wednesday. Jackson seemingly injured his quad during the session and exited early. The 25-year-old was limited with a hip injury early last week but ultimately suited up for Week 12 and finished as a top-10 fantasy quarterback. It will be worth monitoring Jackson's status throughout the week as the severity of his quad issue is currently unknown, but he will be a must-start option against the Denver Broncos on Sunday if active.
Nov 30, 2022 • 10:48 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Not On The Final Injury Report
Updating a previous report, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hip) is off the final injury report for Week 12 and will play on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. There was a bit of concern earlier this week about Jackson's status when he missed practice, but he has since returned to the field and is feeling much better. He will start under center and should be locked into all starting fantasy lineups as a high-end, dual-threat QB for fantasy managers. The 25-year-old has left a lot to be desired throughout the year in fantasy without many reliable options in the passing attack, but he usually makes up for it on the ground. The Jaguars defense has also allowed the 10th-most fantasy points per game to QBs in 2022.
Nov 25, 2022 • 8:21 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Should Play In Week 12
There was a little bit of a cause for concern early in the week for Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hip) when he missed practice, but Jackson has practiced the last two days and head coach John Harbaugh has made it clear that Jackson should play in Week 12 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. There's a chance Jackson is listed as questionable on Friday's final injury report, but fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned if he is. The 25-year-old has been feeling better and shouldn't have any restrictions in a nice matchup against the Jags this weekend. Jackson left a lot to be desired in last week's win over the Carolina Panthers, but he should remain locked into starting fantasy lineups as a high-end QB1 this Sunday.
Nov 25, 2022 • 8:00 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson, Gus Edwards Practice In Full
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hip) and running back Gus Edwards (hamstring) were both upgraded to full practices on Thursday. Jackson missed Wednesday's practice, while Edwards was limited. The 25-year-old signal-caller's injury has been downplayed, and he will suit up in Week 12 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, where he'll be a must-start, high-end QB1 for fantasy managers. Edwards missed his second straight game last week but is trending in the right direction to play this Sunday. Even if Edwards is able to return in Week 12, Kenyan Drake figures to lead Baltimore's backfield, which will make Edwards a tough sell as anything more than a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex.
Nov 24, 2022 • 6:51 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Will Play In Week 12
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hip) was listed with a hip injury and missed practice on Wednesday. Head coach John Harbaugh stated that the former MVP is dealing with an "issue" he sustained in Week 11, but expressed no concerns regarding his availability for Sunday and assured reporters that Jackson will indeed play against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Jackson has been a bit underwhelming as of late after a hot start to the season, but will have a great chance to bounce back to elite form in Week 12 and should be started with confidence in fantasy lineups.
Nov 23, 2022 • 11:13 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson, Mark Andrews Officially Active Sunday
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (illness) and tight end Mark Andrews (knee, shoulder) are active for Week 11 against the Carolina Panthers. Both stars had been listed as questionable. Jackson has completed 62.3 percent of passes for 1,768 yards, 16 touchdowns, and six interceptions. He has also continued to have a major impact on the ground, rushing for 635 yards and an additional two scores. He should be viewed as a mid-range QB1 this week. Meanwhile, Andrews has been elite when active, catching 42 passes for 488 yards and five touchdowns. Despite missing a game in Week 9 and being on bye in Week 10, Andrews is still the overall TE2 in fantasy football behind only Travis Kelce. He should be started in all leagues this week.
Nov 20, 2022 • 4:38 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson To Play Sunday Despite Illness
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (illness) did not practice Friday, but head coach John Harbaugh said he'll play Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. There's never a tricky start-or-sit decision to make with Jackson, as he's always a candidate to be the QB1 each week. Even if Mark Andrews (knee/shoulder) misses this game, Jackson has plenty of upside thanks to his secure rushing floor. As always, fantasy managers should be prepared to pivot if things change, but there's no real danger of Jackson missing this game as of now.
Nov 18, 2022 • 6:35 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Good To Go Against Browns
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hip) practiced in full on Thursday and Friday and was removed from the final injury report for Week 7 against the Cleveland Browns. He will start under center on Sunday and is an absolute must-start at the position for fantasy managers. Jackson could be getting top wideout Rashod Bateman (foot) back, but he'll be without running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) in the backfield. The Browns have only allowed 31 rushing yards to opposing QBs so far this year, but Jackson isn't your normal rushing quarterback. Cleveland's defense has surrendered 27.2 points per game through the first six weeks, which is tied for the third-most points allowed in the NFL.
Oct 21, 2022 • 7:08 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Gets In Full Practice Session
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hip) was a full participant during Thursday's practice. The 25-year-old was limited during Wednesday's practice, but was never expected to miss Week 7. The expectation is that he'll be fully healthy for the upcoming matchup with the Cleveland Browns. Fantasy managers should consider Jackson an elite QB1 for this upcoming matchup.
Oct 20, 2022 • 10:44 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Limited On Wednesday
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hip) was limited in the team's practice on Wednesday. The severity of the injury is unknown, but his limited participation puts him on track to suit up on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. Assuming the former MVP ramps up his activity throughout the week, fantasy managers should have no concerns firing up Jackson as an elite QB1 option.
Oct 19, 2022 • 10:55 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Practices In Full
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (elbow) was a full participant in Thursday's practice after he was limited on Wednesday. Jackson is dealing with a sore right elbow, but head coach John Harbaugh said on Wednesday that Jackson will play in Week 3 against the New England Patriots. The 25-year-old signal-caller also wasn't using a sleeve on his right arm like he was on Wednesday. Fantasy managers need to keep Jackson locked into their starting lineups as a high-end QB1 play this weekend. Jackson put up big numbers in last week's loss to the Miami Dolphins, throwing for 318 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions on 29 attempts while also carrying the ball nine times for 119 yards and another touchdown.
Sep 23, 2022 • 3:00 AM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Limited In Practice, Will Play Sunday
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (elbow) was limited in practice on Wednesday with a right elbow injury, but head coach John Harbaugh said that Jackson will play in Week 3 against the New England Patriots. Jackson was wearing a sleeve on his right elbow, but he will be good to go for fantasy managers as a high-end QB1 after going off in the Week 2 loss to the Miami Dolphins. The 25-year-old threw for 318 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions on 29 attempts last Sunday while also gaining 119 rushing yards and a score on nine rushing attempts. Unless Jackson suffers some sort of setback later in week, he should be locked into starting fantasy lineups for the week.
Sep 21, 2022 • 9:14 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Wears Protective Sleeve On Throwing Arm
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was spotted wearing a protective sleeve on his right arm at Wednesday's practice. Furthermore, ESPN's Jamison Hensley reports Jackson did not throw a pass during the part of practice open to the media. Last week Jackson had 318 passing yards and three touchdowns in a 42-38 loss to the Miami Dolphins. Until more information becomes available, fantasy players shouldn't panic. However, they need to keep an eye on the Baltimore injury report over the next few days. Fantasy players should explore replacement options on the waiver wire if Jackson misses practice later in the week.
Sep 21, 2022 • 6:35 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Done Talking About Contract
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is officially finished talking about his contract situation. "Respectfully, I'm done talking about it," Jackson said. "I told you guys before, I was going to be done with it Week 1. Week 1 is over with. We're done talking about it. I'm focused on the Dolphins now." The 25-year-old recently turned down a massive six-year, $290 million contract that included $133 million fully guaranteed. He will play in the final year of his rookie deal and look for a contract extension next offseason. The 2019 NFL MVP completed 17-of-30 passes for 213 yards, three touchdowns, and an interception in Sunday's 24-9 win over the Jets. He added 17 yards on six rushing attempts. Despite not receiving a new contract, Jackson is a high-end QB1 against the Miami Dolphins in Week 2.
Sep 15, 2022 • 1:21 AM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Turns Down $290 Million Offer
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson recently declined a massive six-year, $290 million contract that included $133 million fully guaranteed at signing, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen. Jackson would have received $48.3 million per year, but he did not want to agree to a deal that was not fully guaranteed. While the extension did include more guaranteed money than Kyler Murray and Russell Wilson received, it came nowhere close to Deshaun Watson's $230 million. The Ravens and their star signal-caller will now table extension talks until next offseason. He will remain under his rookie contract and fifth-year option through 2024, and while the two sides hope to agree to a new deal, the franchise tag could be in play for 2025 and 2026. From a fantasy perspective, Jackson remains one of the most exciting players, boasting high-end QB1 upside every single week.
Sep 11, 2022 • 12:34 PM | RotoBallerRavens, Lamar Jackson Cannot Reach Deal On Extension
Baltimore Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta said that no deal was reached with quarterback Lamar Jackson by Friday's deadline to come to a long-term contract extension. Talks will continue after the 2022 season. Jackson will play this season on the final year of his rookie deal instead. The 25-year-old signal-caller will become a free agent next March, and the Ravens could decide to slap the franchise tag on him at that time. Contract issues aside, Jackson will look to bounce back this year after finishing the season last year on the sidelines due to an ankle injury. The dual-threat QB is a top-five fantasy option at his position and will have a nice matchup to kick things off in Week 1 against the New York Jets.
Sep 9, 2022 • 4:00 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Will Play Out Rookie Deal
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson will play his rookie contract despite the massive absence of guarantees on a new deal. The 2019 NFL MVP insisted that his deadline to get a long-term contract extension done with the team is this Friday before Week 1 against the New York Jets. Both sides will look to reach a deal Friday by midnight. The 25-year-old will look to bounce back in 2022 after an ankle injury limited Jackson to 12 games last season. Jackson is a must-start every week and a high-end QB1 against the Jets for the regular season opener.
Sep 9, 2022 • 1:28 PM | RotoBallerLamar Jackson Won't Play Against Commanders
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson won't play during the team's final preseason game against the Washington Commanders. The 25-year-old has suited up for preseason action in the past. However, head coach John Harbaugh reported Jackson's absence was "part of how the team has organized the rotation." Nevertheless, despite not seeing any exhibition reps ahead of the regular season, the former Louisville Cardinal is expected to remain a top signal-caller in all fantasy formats, assuming he stays healthy. In the meantime, backups Tyler Huntley and Anthony Brown are expected to handle things under center on Saturday night.
