ExtremeRavens Posted October 1 Posted October 1 Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was one of eight players missing from the open portion of practice Wednesday afternoon, including several other starters. Jackson is likely to miss Sunday’s game against the visiting Houston Texans with a hamstring injury and could be out for up to 2-3 weeks, The Baltimore Sun reported Tuesday. Others players who were absent from practice include middle linebacker Roquan Smith (hamstring), cornerbacks Marlon Humphrey (calf), Nate Wiggins (elbow) and Chidobe Awuzie, left tackle Ronnie Stanley (ankle), wide receiver Devontez Walker and fullback Patrick Ricard (calf). Walker was in sweats watching from the sideline. Outside linebacker Kyle Van Noy (hamstring) and nose tackle Travis Jones (knee) both practiced after missing Sunday’s 37-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Ravens rookie offensive tackle Emery Jones also practiced for the first time this season, opening the third-round draft pick’s 21-day window to return. The Ravens also announced that they signed defensive back Amani Oruwariye, a 2019 fifth-round draft pick by the Detroit Lions who has made 40 career starts, to the practice squad. Jackson’s absence remains the most notable for a team hampered by injuries. Baltimore is 4-10 in games Jackson didn’t start since 2018, averaging 16.6 points per game with Tyler Huntley, Robert Griffin III, Josh Johnson and Anthony Brown Jr. as the quarterback. Backup Cooper Rush is expected to start Sunday. This article will be updated. Have a news tip? Contact Sam Jane at sjane@baltsun.com, 410-332-6200 and x.com/Sam_Jane230. View the full article Quote
