Lamar Jackson Still Projected as a QB1 Against Bengals

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has registered a rough stretch of fantasy finishes over the last three games as he continues to deal with a slew of injuries. This week, he was dealing with a toe issue that kept him out of the walkthrough on Monday, but he was a full participant the rest of the way. His upside remains one of the highest in the league, especially against a Cincinnati Bengals defense that has allowed the third most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season, and the second most over the last four weeks. A lot of these matchups with the Bengals have ended up in a shootout, and Jackson's 10-2 against them in his career with a total of 2,472 yards, 22 touchdowns, and four interceptions. For that reason, he's still projected as a QB1, but he's become a bit more worrisome week by week.

Lamar Jackson Returns to Practice

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (toe) returned to practice on Tuesday after missing Monday's walkthrough with a toe injury. With the Ravens facing a shortened week before a Thanksgiving matchup with the Bengals, this follows the same timeline Jackson has seen in each of the previous two weeks. Jackson has started the last four games after missing the previous three with an ankle injury, but he has finished as a QB1 in only one of those weeks, while finishing as QB29 and QB24 in his last two outings. Jackson represents a level of upside that's nearly impossible to keep on the bench, but it's clear he is currently hampered by injury, so fantasy managers should temper expectations in what would normally be a dream matchup against a porous Bengals defense.

Lamar Jackson Now Dealing With a Toe Injury

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (toe) was listed as a non-participant on Monday on the team's estimated practice report due to a new toe injury, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. Although the Ravens are likely just resting Jackson, it's not what fantasy managers want to see. The 28-year-old two-time MVP has been listed on the team's injury report for the last two weeks with minor ankle and knee injuries, and now he's working through a toe ailment. Baltimore was able to beat the New York Jets on Sunday, but it was another quiet game for Jackson, as he went 13-for-23 passing for 153 yards without a touchdown or interception. He added only 11 rushing yards on seven carries. In the last three games, Jackson has one touchdown pass and two interceptions. It's possible that his lower-body injuries -- he also missed a few games with a hamstring injury -- have taken their toll. Jackson has a plus matchup this Thursday against the Bengals if he plays, but his lack of rushing numbers this year has hurt his overall QB1 upside.

Lamar Jackson Could Continue to be Rested on Wednesdays

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the Baltimore Ravens will consider resting quarterback Lamar Jackson every Wednesday to keep him fresh for the rest of the 2025 season. Jackson missed a few games earlier this year with a hamstring injury and has missed the last two Wednesday practices due to minor ankle and knee injuries. The 28-year-old figures to be a non-participant on Monday, too, but he should be just fine for the Thanksgiving Day game against the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals next Thursday (as long as he comes out of Week 12 without any injuries). Jackson hasn't looked the same on the ground this year, which has kept him from the elite tier of QB1 options in fantasy football. However, the two-time MVP is still a set-and-forget QB1 in fantasy football and could be primed for a bounce-back performance on Sunday against the visiting New York Jets.

Lamar Jackson Looking for Bounce Back Week Vs. Jets

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has registered two weeks in a row outside of QB1 territory. This is the first time he's done so since the 2023 season from Week 8 to Week 10. Last season, every time he had a lackluster performance, he followed it up with a top six fantasy finish. In Week 12, Jackson and company take on the New York Jets, who rank 22nd against opposing quarterbacks and allow an average of 18.61 fantasy points per game. The Jets haven't even collected a single interception all season and have only forced one turnover which was back in Week 6. So, if there's anyone to have a bounce back game against, it's the Jets. Jackson is projected for a return to QB1 in this matchup, making him a must-start once again.

Lamar Jackson Practicing for Second Straight Day

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) is practicing for the second straight day on Friday, according to Jamison Hensley of ESPN. Jackson was held out of practice on Wednesday with an ankle injury, but he was a full participant on Thursday and appears to be just fine for the Week 12 matchup this Sunday against the visiting New York Jets. The 28-year-old two-time MVP missed several games earlier this season due to a hamstring injury, but even before the injury, he wasn't running all that much. Jackson has only scored on the ground once so far in seven games in 2025, and that was back in Week 1. He threw four touchdowns in his return from his hamstring injury against Miami on Oct. 30, but in the last two games, he has one touchdown and two picks. Jackson should still be considered a high-end QB1 option in a prime bounce-back matchup against the Jets.

Lamar Jackson Returns to Thursday's Practice

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) has returned to practice on Thursday, according to Morgan Adsit of FOX Baltimore. Jackson was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice due to a new ankle injury. The 28-year-old two-time MVP also missed practice with a sore knee last Wednesday before returning to practice on Thursday and playing in the Week 11 win over the Cleveland Browns. The ankle is a new injury for Jackson, but it doesn't appear to be very serious, so he should be active this Sunday for a prime matchup against the two-win New York Jets. Jackson threw four touchdown passes in Week 9 in his return from a hamstring injury that sidelined him for multiple contests, but he has thrown only one touchdown and two interceptions in his last two games, and he has not had a rushing TD since Week 1. Despite a lackluster last two weeks throwing and running the football, Jackson is a prime bounce-back candidate this Sunday against the Jets.

Lamar Jackson Absent Due to Ankle Injury

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) was a non-participant during Wednesday's practice session due to an ankle issue. Last week, Jackson missed practice time due to a knee issue. Despite that, Jackson did suit up for last week's matchup against the Cleveland Browns. The assumption was that he missed practice to begin the week due to the same issue. That isn't the case as Jackson appears to be now dealing with an ankle problem. There isn't a ton of context on the issue, so fantasy managers will need to check back for more updates throughout the week. The assumption is that it's a minor issue, but fantasy managers will know more later in the week.

Lamar Jackson Absent From Practice on Wednesday

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) was absent from practice on Wednesday, according to Jamison Hensley of ESPN. Hensley writes that this could be a similar situation to last week, when Jackson missed Wednesday's practice with a sore knee but still played in the Week 11 win over the Cleveland Browns. The 28-year-old two-time MVP didn't look great against a strong Browns defense last Sunday, going 14-for-25 passing for 193 yards, no touchdowns, and two interceptions in a 23-16 win. He added only four carries for 10 yards on the ground. Jackson missed several weeks with a hamstring strain earlier this season and might not be operating at 100%, but he should be available for Week 12 against the visiting New York Jets in a matchup where he should be able to bounce back for fantasy managers as a strong QB1 option.

Lamar Jackson Still a Must-Start Against AFC North Rival

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson put up a lackluster performance in Week 10, especially for his standards. It was the only game that he played start to finish and didn't end up in QB1 territory. In Week 11, he takes on the Cleveland Browns, who haven't been very easy for opposing quarterbacks. They're ranked as the fifth-toughest matchup for the position and give up an average of 13.83 fantasy points per game. Jackson was one of only two QBs that has already thrown for 200+ yards and three or more touchdowns against this defense, though. He finished as QB3 in that Week 2 showdown and is projected for the same finish this time around.

Lamar Jackson Ready to Roll for Sunday

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said on Friday that quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) is a full-go for Sunday's contest against the division-rival Cleveland Browns in Week 11. There was some concern over Jackson's status after he did not practice on Wednesday, but he was only dealing with a sore knee and returned to a full practice the following day. The 28-year-old two-time MVP missed some time earlier this year with a hamstring strain, but this weekend will be his third game back in action. The four-time Pro Bowler currently leads the NFL in touchdown percentage (10.2), adjusted yards gained per pass attempt (10.23), and passer rating (127.1) while throwing for 1,249 yards, 15 touchdowns, and only one interception in six starts. Despite facing a decent Browns defense, Jackson is a no-doubt, must-start at the QB position in fantasy.

Lamar Jackson Practicing Again on Friday

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) was seen practicing again on Friday, according to Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun. Fantasy managers may have panicked a little bit earlier this week when it was announced that Jackson didn't practice on Wednesday due to a knee injury. However, the two-time MVP returned to a full practice on Thursday, and he should be just fine to suit up for a divisional meeting with the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. In two games since returning from a hamstring injury that knocked Jackson out for several games, he's gone 35-for-52 passing for 380 yards, five touchdowns, and no interceptions while running for 50 yards on 14 attempts. Even though Jackson might still be getting his legs back under him, he's a must-start this weekend against the Browns. Back in Week 2, Jackson threw for 225 yards and four touchdowns against them in a 41-17 victory.

Lamar Jackson Returns to Practice Thursday

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) was back at practice Thursday after missing Wednesday's session. Jackson has returned to his dominant form after missing three starts due to injury. The Ravens quarterback will face the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. The former MVP torched the Browns in their previous matchup with 225 yards passing and four touchdowns. Expect another big game for Jackson with the team riding a three-game win streak. Mark Andrews and Zay Flowers should be considered must-start options as well with Jackson in the lineup.

Lamar Jackson has Knee Soreness, "Should be Good" for Week 11

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) missed Wednesday's practice due to knee soreness, but that "he should be good" to play on Sunday in Week 11 versus the division-rival Cleveland Browns, according to The Athletic's Jeff Zrebiec. The Ravens are downplaying the injury, and Jackson should be back on the practice field on Thursday. It's something to keep an eye on, but as long as the 28-year-old two-time MVP is active this weekend, he should be in all starting fantasy football lineups despite a less-than-ideal matchup on the road against the Browns. Jackson went 19-for-29 passing for 225 yards, four touchdowns, and no interceptions in the 41-17 win over Cleveland in their first meeting this season back on Sept. 14.

Lamar Jackson Not Practicing on Wednesday

The Athletic's Jeff Zrebiec reports that Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (undisclosed) is not practicing on Wednesday. It's unclear why Jackson isn't practicing, but this is obviously a situation to watch going forward this week. The two-time MVP missed Weeks 5-8 due to a hamstring injury he suffered in Week 4, but it's unclear if his absence from Wednesday's practice is related to that. The 28-year-old played all of the team's offensive snaps in the Week 10 win over the Minnesota Vikings and didn't appear to suffer any sort of injury in that game, going 17-for-29 passing for 176 yards and a touchdown and adding a season-high nine carries for 36 yards on the ground. In the event Jackson is dealing with another injury that will sideline him this weekend against the division-rival Cleveland Browns, Tyler Huntley would likely make the start under center for Baltimore. Stay tuned.

Lamar Jackson Looks to Keep Momentum Rolling Against Vikings

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson returned from a three-game absence and picked apart the Miami Dolphins for four touchdowns through the air with a 78.3 completion percentage. He'll have a tougher task ahead of him in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings. They're around the middle of the pack in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing QBs, with an average of 16.62 per game. Over the last three weeks, however, the Vikings have given up 19 or more fantasy points in each game. Jackson is already a must-start, and should continue to roll while the offense is the healthiest it's been all season.

Lamar Jackson Strikes for Four Touchdowns in First Game Back

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson completed 18 of his 23 pass attempts for 204 yards, four touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Thursday's Week 9 win over the Miami Dolphins. He also rushed for 14 yards. Jackson returned from a multi-week absence caused by a hamstring injury, and he picked up right where he left off. The star quarterback didn't rush as much as he usually does, but he continued to demonstrate impressive accuracy while turning in his second four-touchdown game of the season. Jackson now has 15 touchdowns and just two turnovers through five games. He remains a high-end QB1 heading into next week's clash with the Minnesota Vikings.

Lamar Jackson Won't Have Any Limitations on Thursday Night

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring) is officially active and is "fully healthy" with "no limitations" for Thursday night's game against the hosting Miami Dolphins in Week 9, according to Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network. Jackson led the NFL with 10 passing touchdowns, 11 total TDs, and a 130.5 passer rating before injuring his hamstring in the Week 4 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Now that he's back after a three-game absence, the Ravens are hoping that he can start saving their season, starting on Thursday Night Football. With no limitations and a soft matchup against Miami's defense, the two-time MVP is a must-start in fantasy lineups in his first game back. According to Wolfe, the vibes around this Ravens team this week have been "Lamarvelous" with their star QB back in the fold.

Lamar Jackson Returns to Must-Start Status in Week 9

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is set to be under center for the first time since Week 4 against the Kansas City Chiefs. As a potential QB1 every time he takes the field, it's not a surprise that he becomes a must-start the moment he returns. Jackson will take on the Miami Dolphins defense in Week 9, a unit that ranks 24th against opposing QBs and has allowed an average of 18.71 fantasy points per game. Through four games this season, Jackson has accrued 869 yards, 10 touchdowns, and one interception while completing 71.6% of his passes. He's also contributed 166 yards and another touchdown on 21 carries. Fantasy managers probably have already thrown him into their lineups the moment he was confirmed to be back, as they should.

Lamar Jackson Removed From Injury Report, Will Return on Thursday

The Baltimore Ravens officially removed quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring) from their Week 9 injury report on Wednesday, and he will make his return for a Thursday night clash against the Miami Dolphins. Fantasy managers have been without Jackson since he tweaked his hamstring in the Week 4 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The two-time MVP was a full participant at practice during the short week of preparation and should be without limitations in his return to the gridiron. Jackson said on Tuesday that he is 100% healthy and ready to go. The four-time Pro Bowler should be put back into all starting fantasy lineups for Week 9 action against a Dolphins defense that has been a top-12 matchup for opposing QBs this season. Jackson comes into Thursday's game with 869 passing yards, 10 touchdowns, and only one interception in his four starts, adding 166 yards and a score on the ground.
