Analysis

In Week 9, Jackson sat out practices Wednesday and Thursday with knee and back injuries, but he put in a full practice Friday and didn't carry a designation into Sunday's 41-10 win over the Broncos. Even though he was removed early amid the blowout and finished with his fewest carries of the season (three) while throwing just 19 passes, Jackson is apparently still bothered by the knee issue coming off the light workload. Though Tuesday represents the Ravens' only full practice of the week prior to Thursday's game against the Bengals, head coach John Harbaugh suggested that Jackson's absence from the session puts the quarterback in no danger of missing the Week 10 contest, per Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com. The Ravens will release the final injury report of the week Wednesday, when it will be known whether Jackson carries a designation into the contest.

Analysis

For the first time all season, Jackson failed to run for double-digit yardage as he gained only four yards on three carries, but he hardly needed to during a game in which the Ravens never trailed. He was nearly flawless with his arm though, posting a perfect QB rating of 158.3 as he hit Zay Flowers for a pair of second-quarter scores before adding a three-yard TD to Patrick Ricard late in the third. Jackson has a stellar 15:1 TD:INT over the last five games, reaching 280 passing yards in all five contests, and his impressive streak figures to continue in Week 10 against a Bengals defense he already lit up for 348 yards and four touchdowns in their first meeting.

Analysis

Jackson was listed as a non-participant both Wednesday and Thursday, but the star QB is good to go for Sunday's game after working fully Friday and looking good in doing so, as coach John Harbaugh told Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. Per Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com, Jackson noted Friday that his status for the contest was never in doubt and that his missed practices were simply a case of resting his body ahead of Week 9 action.

Analysis

Jackson missed practice Wednesday and Thursday but returned to practice Friday. While Baltimore has yet to unveil its injury designations for Sunday's game, both the reigning NFL MVP and his coach were confident regarding Jackson's availability. Earlier Friday, Jackson said his availability was never in doubt and that he was simply resting his body with a couple days off from practice Wednesday and Thursday, per Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com.

Analysis

Following back-to-back DNPs, Jackson's return to the field for Friday's session is a good sign regarding the star QB's availability for Sunday's game against the Broncos. The Ravens' upcoming injury report will clarify Jackson's official participation level, as well as his Week 9 game status.

Analysis

Head coach John Harbaugh had previously characterized Jackson's absence from practice Wednesday as a rest day, only for the quarterback to be listed with a pair of health concerns upon the release of the team's first Week 9 injury report later that day. With Jackson now sitting out a second straight practice, his status for Sunday's game against the Broncos is suddenly on much shakier ground than initially believed. According to Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com, Harbaugh isn't expected to speak to the media again until Friday, at which point he'll likely clarify whether Jackson is truly in danger of missing the Week 9 contest. If Jackson ends up missing his first game of the season Sunday, journeyman backup Josh Johnson would be in line to make his first start since 2021 and would oversee what would presumably be an even more run-heavy offense than usual.

Analysis

Earlier Wednesday, head coach John Harbaugh attributed Jackson's absence from practice to rest, but after the team's first Week 9 injury report was released, the quarterback was revealed to be nursing a pair of injuries. Regardless, the Ravens haven't indicated that Jackson is dealing with anything serious, and Harbaugh's comments in particular suggest that the team isn't worried about Jackson missing a home game against the Broncos this Sunday.

Analysis

Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com previously suggested that Jackson seemed to be dealing with a little discomfort with his groin or abdomen coming out of this past Sunday's loss to the Browns, but the quarterback's absence from Wednesday's practice was evidently not injury-related.

Analysis

Shaffer notes that Jackson seemed to have some discomfort in his groin or abdomen following Sunday's 29-24 loss at Cleveland. The Ravens will release their first Week 9 injury report later Wednesday, when it will become known whether Jackson missed practice entirely or ended up being a limited participant.
