Lamar's ankle sprain neither low nor high
NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Lamar Jackson suffered a sprained ankle last week against the Titans and is expected to miss at least one game, with Tyler Huntley stepping in as the Ravens' starting quarterback for their upcoming matchup against the Falcons.
- Despite Jackson’s injury, he showed strong performance in the first half against the Titans, including multiple long completions and touchdown passes to Zay Flowers and Mark Andrews.
- Zay Flowers has emerged as a top fantasy wide receiver, accumulating 352 yards and two touchdowns on 18 receptions this season, and is considered a WR1 option for Week 5 against the Falcons.
- The Ravens are cautious with Jackson’s recovery, with updates expected throughout the week; fantasy managers should prepare backup plans given the Falcons' strong defense, which ranks third lowest in drop-back success rate.
- The Ravens will have left tackle Ronnie Stanley returning from injury, while several other players including Joe Fagnano and Trey Hendrickson remain inactive for Week 4.
