Jackson thumb injury requires surgery; out minimum four games, possibly season-ending.

Jackson suffered a right thumb injury on the first play of Week 8 against Buffalo and will be placed on injured reserve; Ravens coach Jesse Minter confirmed it will require surgery. Jackson is guaranteed to miss at least four games (Weeks 9-12), with the earliest potential return in Week 14 against Tampa Bay. Minter acknowledged the injury could "potentially" be season-ending, and the team will take a wait-and-see approach before determining if Jackson can return in 2026.
