Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is on the team’s injury report for the third-straight week after not finishing practice Wednesday, according to Jamison Hensley of ESPN.
This is not a continuation of any previous injuries and his status for the weekend is still far from determined.
Two weeks ago, Jackson sat out of a practice due to illness and followed that up with a missed practice last week because of a hip injury.
The former-MVP was sidelined today with a quadriceps issue that caused him to seek treatment from a trainer and miss his usual media session.
Although many have assumed Jackson’s running tendencies would lead to an increase in injuries, he has been remarkably durable. Over five years in the league, Jackson has only missed four games over a four-week stretch last year as he dealt with an ankle injury.
His continuous ability to play despite being banged up is an encouraging sign for Baltimore.
The team will want their most valuable player as they prepare to face one of the league’s more stout defenses from Denver this week.
If Jackson is unavailable this week, the Ravens will turn to Tyler Huntley, who went 1-3 as a starter in the four games Jackson had to miss last season.
