Ravens' Lamar Jackson Ruled Out for Week 5 Against Falcons

The Baltimore Ravens will not have quarterback Lamar Jackson available for their Week 5 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons due to an ankle injury. Tyler Huntley will take over as the starting quarterback as the Ravens aim to enhance their 3-1 record.

Jackson sustained the injury during the second quarter of the previous game against the Tennessee Titans, where he had a strong performance before being tackled by Jermaine Johnson II. He did not participate in practice throughout the week, despite efforts to recover.

Huntley, who stepped in for Jackson during the Titans game, completed 8 of 9 passes for 63 yards and added 16 rushing yards. The Ravens have struggled without Jackson, holding a 6-11 record in regular-season games when he is unavailable. The Falcons, currently one of the league's top teams, have been averaging 40 points per game recently, with standout performances from players like Bijan Robinson.
