Ian Rapoport reported Jackson has a sprained ankle and is not expected to miss much time, with Tyler Huntley likely to start if he sits.

  • On Tuesday, NFL Media insider Ian Rapoport reported that Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has a sprained ankle and is unlikely to play Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons, though the injury is not considered long-term or surgical.
  • Jackson suffered the ankle injury at halftime during Baltimore's Week 4 win over Tennessee after Titans edge rusher Jermaine Johnson tackled him from behind; Jackson had completed 15-of-20 passes for 222 yards with 2 touchdowns before the injury.
