Lamar Jackson back on practice field for Ravens after missing two games with hamstring injury
Just as it appeared Lamar Jackson would again be absent from practice, the two-time MVP took the field for the Baltimore Ravens.
How much progress he’s made from a hamstring injury remains something of a secret, but this was certainly a welcome sight for his teammates.
“He’ll continue to get better and better,” center Tyler Linderbaum said. “We’ll be happy to have him out on the field whenever that is.”
Jackson missed the past two games with a hamstring injury, and then the Ravens had an open date last week. He was listed as limited in practice Wednesday, having taken the field a few minutes after the other quarterbacks but during a portion still open to reporters. He did have a helmet on and did make some throws, and he received some hugs from teammates, but nobody should jump to any certain conclusions about his availability this weekend against Chicago.
The Ravens (1-5) have been holding out hope that Jackson’s return can help save their season after four straight losses. They host the Bears on Sunday, then have a quick turnaround before playing at Miami the following Thursday.
Harbaugh said the short time between games won’t be a factor in when they bring Jackson back
I don’t think we’re thinking about it that way,” he said. “We’re focused and locked in on Sunday’s game, and that’s it right now.”
Baltimore didn’t do anything drastic during its week off. The Ravens haven’t announced any coaching changes, and the other two quarterbacks – Cooper Rush and Tyler Huntley – are still on the roster, although Harbaugh wouldn’t say who would start if Jackson has to miss another game this week.
Harbaugh did announce that linebacker Tavius Robinson (broken foot) was going on injured reserve, and offensive lineman Emery Jones was coming up to the active roster.
Cornerback Marlon Humphrey missed practice with an illness Wednesday, but other Baltimore players who have been injured recently were full participants: linebacker Roquan Smith (hamstring), tackle Ronnie Stanley (ankle), fullback Patrick Ricard (calf), receivers Zay

In a rare move, the White House recently took down a racist post from one of President Trump’s social media accounts. Extremism researchers say it fits a pattern of mainstreaming extremist ideas.
