Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson exited Sunday\u2019s 24-18 win over the Titans after suffering an ankle injury late in the first half. And while his status has been characterized elsewhere as \u201cday to day,\u201d he is currently believed to be week to week, we\u2019re told.<\/p>\n
Jackson left the stadium in a walking boot.<\/p>\n
The final prognosis depends on an MRI, which will reveal the extent of the ligament damage.<\/p>\n
Ravens coach Jesse Minter downplayed the situation in his postgame press conference.<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, he was just dealing with a little bit of an ankle, we hope,\u201d Minter told reporters regarding the two-time NFL MVP. \u201cI don\u2019t know enough about it right now. But we\u2019ll have to see where that\u2019s at. But again, thought Snoop [Huntley] came in and ran the operation in a way that allowed us to get the win which is most important. And so we\u2019ll see where that\u2019s at.\u201d <\/p>\n
Minter also acknowledged that \u201cthere was some talk\u201d about Jackson returning to the game if necessary.<\/p>\n
Again, the MRI will be critical. The 3-1 Ravens face the 1-2 Falcons in Atlanta next Sunday night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson exited Sunday\u2019s 24-18 win over the Titans after suffering an ankle injury late in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":871424,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[99],"class_list":["post-871423","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/871423","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=871423"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/871423\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/871424"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=871423"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=871423"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=871423"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
