Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson sprained his right ankle in today's 22-24 loss to Cleveland Browns, which put a big question mark on their final four games of the season. According to sources, Jackson walked out of the locker room wearing protective boots and was diagnosed with a low ankle sprain.
Asked if Jackson needed more testing, head coach John Hubble said: "We'll take another look (on Monday) and see how it goes. "With four weeks of play remaining, the Ravens' top divisional position is not secure. They have the league's toughest schedule in the future, with home games against packers and Tigers, followed by the Rams and Steelers. Bench quarterback Taylor Hendry nearly completed a remarkable impending assignment on Sunday, and even in Jackson's absence, the Ravens believe they are a playoff team.
'Taylor showed us a lot, especially when he wasn't intimidated at all on the pitch and made the whole team breathe a sigh of relief. "That's why we still have a good chance of winning the American League North Championship and moving on, that's what we're going to do in the next four weeks," Hubble said. ”
Jackson was injured on 4 of 4 passes before the injury, and he was injured on his first offense in the second quarter, when he completed a short pass with midfielder David Andrews. Brown linebacker Jeremiah Owusu Kolamoa pounced on Jackson's right leg, and Jackson immediately fell to the ground, clutching his ankle. After four minutes in the medical tent, Jackson could no longer bear any weight on his right leg before being carried into the locker room. It is worth mentioning that Jackson accidentally stepped on the marker on the sidelines when he ran out of bounds last week, sprained his right ankle, and the ankle was wrapped in bandages for the following week.
It looks like the Ravens will have to leave the future to Hendry, but the latter's performance gives hope. Hendry said: "He (Jackson) will be ready to work and will come back as soon as he is okay. In this game, the Ravens trailed by 19 points at one point, but they gradually pulled back the score in the second half. After scoring 19 consecutive points, the team's last-minute victory was fruitless, suffering its first two-game losing streak since last December, without even giving Tucker the opportunity to try a long-range free kick.
Injuries have nearly exhausted the Ravens, who have 23 players on the injury list this season. In addition to Jackson, defensive ender Calais Campbell also injured his thigh. According to statistics, Jackson has been hit an average of 16 times per game this year, which is the quarterback who has been hit the most times per game in the past 15 years.
