Every Friday at 3 p.m. ET, DraftKings Sportsbook analyst Steve Buchanan and NFL guru Meghan Townsley chop up the latest injury news on Injury Report Live! Check out what they have to say about this latest injury to Lamar Jackson (back/knee).
After missing practice on Wednesday and Thursday, Lamar Jackson’s ($8,000) status for Week 9 has been up in the air. While the Ravens called the quarterback’s first missed practice a rest day, two straight DNP’s is never a great sign. This Sunday’s date with a fearsome Broncos defense only increases the magnitude of the MVP candidate’s health status.
Can LJ suit up this week for the Ravens? Even if he does, will he be at 100% going into a tough matchup? Meghan (@mtownsleyy) and Steve (@SBuchanan24) shared their thoughts on Baltimore’s signal caller on Friday’s edition of Injury Report Live:
- Although Jackson was taken off the injury report on Friday, neither Steve and Meghan are rushing to add any quarterback dealing with multiple injuries.
- The Ravens offensive line gave up a season-high 18 pressures against the Browns last week. That’s a recipe for disaster against an even better Broncos defensive line.
See their full analysis here:
- Meghan is considering fading all of Baltimore’s wide receivers due to Denver’s terrific secondary.
- New acquisition Diontae Johnson ($6,300) could be in line for a classic let-down spot in his first game with the Ravens.
