Ravens Rule Out Lamar Jackson for Sunday's Matchup Against the Texans
Backup quarterback Cooper Rush starts as Ravens aim to rebound from a 1-3 season start with key defensive players out, facing a Texans defense allowing just 12.8 points per game.
- Sunday, the Ravens ruled out quarterback Lamar Jackson with a hamstring injury, naming Cooper Rush the starter with Tyler Huntley as backup at M&T Bank Stadium for 1 p.m. kickoff.
- Faced with Lamar Jackson's $43.5 million cap hit, Eric DeCosta signed Cooper Rush seven months ago as a low-cost backup quarterback.
- Coaches note Rush's experience but also preseason and camp accuracy issues, as the ninth-year NFL veteran started eight games for Dallas Cowboys last season with nine wins.
- The 1-3 Baltimore Ravens need a win to avoid a 1-4 start, with All-Pro Roquan Smith, Marlon Humphrey and Patrick Ricard ruled out Sunday.
- Between two and three weeks sidelined for Lamar Jackson could force Baltimore Ravens to reconfigure offense, as their 4-10 record without him makes Cooper Rush's performance pivotal.
