Lamar Jackson, the Baltimore Ravens’ dynamic quarterback, will miss the upcoming game after sustaining an ankle injury on October fourth. The injury has sidelined him for a second consecutive week, prompting head coach Jesse Minter to name Tyler Huntley as the starting quarterback. Huntley, who completed twenty‑four of thirty‑two passes for two hundred‑one yards with two touchdowns last week, is expected to lead the offense against the Cleveland Browns. Other key players, including left tackle Ronnie Stanley and tight end Matt Hibner, also missed Friday’s practice. The Ravens will issue a final injury report later today, but the focus remains on Jackson’s absence and Huntley’s readiness to step into the spotlight.
