Lamar Jackson ruled out for Week 5 as NFL report lists hamstring injury

Update, Oct. 6: The NFL’s official Week 5 injury report lists Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson as OUT for the game against Houston and identifies the injury as a hamstring issue. That is a firmer status than NFL Network’s earlier report, which said an ankle sprain left him with only an outside chance to play. Jackson left Baltimore’s Week 4 win over Tennessee after the second quarter and did not return. Tyler Huntley is expected to start in his place. The updated report settles Jackson’s availability for this game, though it does not give a return date. Illustration: AI-generated artwork, not a photograph of Lamar Jackson.
