Yahoo Sports NFL on Lamar Jackson
From the article
Jackson injured his thumb during Sunday's 36-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Baltimore's first offensive play. Jackson was making his return from a three-week absence with a high-ankle sprain, and he got injured on his first throw since Week 4 against the Tennessee Titans. Head coach Jesse Minter told reporters postgame that Jackson would require surgery on his injured thumb and a stint on injured reserve.
STACKED’s take
Jackson requires thumb surgery, placed on IR after one snap back from ankle injury.
Jackson suffered a thumb injury on his throwing hand during the Ravens' 36-10 loss to Buffalo on Sunday, his first offensive play back from a three-week high-ankle sprain absence. Bills linebacker Greg Rousseau made contact with Jackson's hand while defending the pass; Jackson immediately left the field. Head coach Jesse Minter confirmed Jackson requires surgery and injured reserve placement. The precise timeline remains unclear, with Minter saying 'We'll see' when asked if the injury was season-ending. This marks Jackson's 21st missed game since his 2018 rookie season, compounding a pattern of injury-limited seasons (four games missed in 2025, five games each in 2021 and 2022) that contributed to the Ravens' 8-9 record and playoff miss last year.
