Jackson said this was his first experience with a hamstring injury. He wanted to return as quickly as possible but was also wary of reinjuring himself.
“You don’t want to rush [back from] a hamstring injury and make it worse, and then now you’re out for the whole season,” Jackson said. “I feel like hamstring injuries can be tricky. This was my first time having one, and I thought I’d be able to move sometimes, and then I would feel a little tug early on when I was rehabbing. I didn’t want to end my season or end my career on a hamstring injury.”
The Ravens practiced Tuesday with their healthiest team in weeks. Every player on the 53-man roster practiced, a positive sign during a short week before Thursday night’s game against the Miami Dolphins.
Left tackle Ronnie Stanley (ankle) was limited. Cornerbacks Nate Wiggins (groin) and T.J. Tampa Jr. (shoulder) and linebacker Teddye Buchanan (calf) were full participants after being limited on Monday.
