Ravens WR Zay Flowers was held without a catch in Sunday’s loss to Buffalo. Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley both departed with first half injuries, leaving Flowers to run routes for third-string rookie Joe Fagnano.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson is "likely" out for the season with the right thumb injury he suffered in the Week 8 loss to the Bills, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Jackson is slated for surgery on that thumb, and we should get confirmation on a timeline for return then. We'll keep you updated on the situation, but Jackson is droppable from redraft rosters on this week's waiver run.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson will need surgery on his right thumb and head to injured reserve, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. That will knock Jackson out for at least the next four games. We'll see if he'll miss more time beyond that. Baltimore also lost QB Tyler Huntley to a toe injury in Buffalo, leaving his status uncertain going forward. Undrafted rookie QB Joe Fagnano could be under center for the foreseeable future. He threw for 91 yards, 0 TDs, and 1 INT on 10-of-21 passing against the Bills today.

Update: HC Jesse Minter said “we’ll see” when asked if Jackson's injury is season-ending, so it seems like he could miss more than just four games.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson suffered an apparent right hand injury on his very first throw of Sunday's game vs. the Bills. He headed straight back to the locker room with trainers. We'll update Jackson's status when we learn more.

Update: Jackson has been ruled out.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) will start this weekend's game vs. the Bills, HC Jesse Minter announced Friday. Jackson was a full participant in practice all week. He and the team have seemingly been conservative coming back from this injury, so we're expecting him to at least be close to 100%. There's still a bit more risk here than usual, but Jackson has big fantasy upside in a likely shootout against Buffalo's 29th-ranked QB defense.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. It was his first full practice since going down in Week 4 and puts him on track to play against the Bills this weekend. Jackson's mobility might still not be all the way back, but he'll boast plenty of fantasy upside vs. Buffalo's 29th-ranked QB defense.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) is expected to play vs. the Bills this weekend, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Jackson seemed close to playing last week, so close that CBS's Tracy Wolfson reported that the team was surprised that he didn't end up playing against the Bengals. But Rapoport hears that Jackson's injury was expected to cost him 2-3 games. He's missed 3 and is on track to return on Sunday.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirms that Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) will "likely" return for Week 8. Jackson was "really close" to playing vs. the Bengals today, Rapoport adds. The Ravens get a showdown with the Bills next Sunday before a Thursday night game vs. the Jaguars.

The Ravens have announced that QB Lamar Jackson won't play in Sunday's game against the Bengals. His ankle isn't quite healthy enough for game action after three straight limited practices. Here's what the 29-year-old shared on Friday. "If I can just go out there and feel the pain a little bit, I can play," Jackson said via ESPN. "But if I'm restricted and I can't do what I do, I'm not helping nobody. If I can just go out there and just be a statue and get hit, that's not helping my team at all." Tyler Huntley will make another start and projects as a clear fantasy QB2 against the Bengals. Jackson, meanwhile, will aim to return for Week 8 at Buffalo.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Bengals. HC Jesse Minter said Friday that the team is still “working through” whether Jackson will play. Jackson, meanwhile, revealed that he was diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain. He said he’s “headed in the right direction” with the recovery but is still dealing with some pain. “Just trying to move how I move. If I can't do that, I can't help my team,” Jackson said. He seems truly uncertain for this weekend’s game. We’ll look for further updates and get Baltimore’s inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) remained limited in Thursday's practice. But the limp he had on Wednesday was gone, according to multiple beat writers. ESPN's Jamison Hensley said it looked like Jackson did more on Thursday than Wednesday. He's trending in the right direction, although his availability for this weekend's game vs. the Bengals remains uncertain. We'll get another update on Jackson tomorrow.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. It was his first official work since going down in Week 4. HC Jesse Minter said Jackson "was able to get in a little bit of work and be involved in preparation." ESPN's Jamison Hensley spotted Jackson with a "noticeable limp" after practice. He's clearly still not close to 100% and remains uncertain for this weekend's game vs. the Bengals. We'll update Jackson's status again tomorrow.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Browns. Despite early-week optimism, Jackson didn't practice all week and didn't seem particularly close to playing in this one. We'll see if he can make it back for Week 7's meeting with the Bengals. QB Tyler Huntley gets another start this weekend and figures to pilot a run-heavy offense with the Ravens 3.5-point favorites.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. He's looking more likely than not to miss this weekend's game vs. the Browns, but we'll update his status again tomorrow. Jackson's absence would again leave QB Tyler Huntley under center. Huntley played fine in the Week 5 win over the Falcons, completing 75% of his passes with 2 TDs and 0 INTs. But he averaged just 6.3 yards per attempt, and the Ravens leaned run with a -2.5% pass rate over expected. We'll likely see another conservative, run-leaning attack if Huntley starts Sunday's game.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) remained sidelined for Wednesday's practice. "It's definitely day-to-day," HC Jesse Minter said of Jackson's status. "He's working his butt off. He's doing everything he can to be out here, and when he's able to be, then he will." ESPN's Adam Schefter said this morning that Jackson has a "realistic chance" to play vs. the Browns this weekend, but this isn't a good start. Fantasy owners should make sure to have a backup plan in place for Week 6 lineups.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) has a "realistic chance" to play vs. the Browns this weekend, a league source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter. The reporting on Jackson's progress has been generally positive over the past few days. We're tentatively projecting him to play on Sunday, albeit with lower-than-usual rushing production coming off the ankle injury. We'll keep you updated on his status throughout the rest of the week.

Huntley completed 24 of 32 pass attempts for 201 yards and 2 TDs, while adding another 20 yards and a TD as a rusher to finish as a QB1 for the second and only other time since 2021. He took over for QB Lamar Jackson who was sidelined with an ankle injury, finishing as the QB8 in Week 5 following the Ravens overtime win over the Falcons.
