Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson missed two days of practice last week due to back and knee issues. Head coach John Harbaugh claimed the two-time league MVP missed Wednesday’s practice due to a “rest day.”
Jackson returned to practice last Friday and played just fine in the Ravens’ 41-10 victory over the Denver Broncos on Sunday. He went 16-of-19 passing for 280 yards and three touchdowns.
Jackson was more limited in the rushing attack than normal, adding four yards on three carries in the blowout win at M&T Bank Stadium.
The Ravens were back to practice on Tuesday as they prepare to play the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night. Per multiple reports, Jackson was not there after missing Monday’s walkthrough.
Per the Ravens X account, Harbaugh responded to a question about Jackson, and the head coach said the star quarterback would play against the Bengals despite the problem that is keeping him from practice.

“Nothing I really want to talk about or comment on,” Harbaugh said. “(Jackson) will be playing Thursday night.”
Jackson’s availability is good news for the Ravens, as they’re set to face a 4-5 Bengals team that has won three of its last four games.
