Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson missed practice on Wednesday ahead of the team’s matchup against the New York Jets. The Ravens announced that Jackson was one of the eight players who did not participate in Wednesday’s practice.
This is not a big surprise, as Jackson missed the first practice of last week due to knee soreness. He returned to full participation in the coming days and was taken off the injury report ahead of the game against the Cleveland Browns.
On Sunday, Jackson struggled against the Browns, completing 14 of 25 passes for 193 yards and two interceptions in the Ravens’ 23-16 victory. Baltimore won the game because it rushed for 184 yards and allowed just 187 total yards against Cleveland.
After the game, Jackson talked about winning a game while making multiple mistakes. “[It says that we can] fight through adversity,” he told reporters, per the team’s official website.“At the same time, this is a divisional game, so we know type of game it’ll be. I guess not with the turnovers and stuff like that, but we knew it was going to be a dog fight.”
