STACKED’s take
Jackson's ankle injury carries 25th-percentile recovery score; expect 2-3 week absence.
Lamar Jackson ruled out for Week 5 with ankle injury; recovery specifics remain vague per Ian Rapoport's report that injury is neither 'low nor high'. Jackson carries a 25th-percentile Recovery Score, indicating historically slower recovery than peers with similar injuries. He has scrambled on nearly 10% of dropbacks this season with approximately 25% of fantasy production from rushing. Historical data shows 67% of quarterbacks returning from ankle injuries saw scramble rate decline in first game back, averaging 73% drop, with 75% remaining below season-average scramble rate over broader post-injury sample. Given mobility's significance to Jackson's game, the source projects 2-3 week absence until he is comfortable running and cutting.
