Before the Los Angeles Rams’ game against the Ravens on Thursday, there was a brief sigh of relief among their supporters when Lamar Jackson vanished from practice without explanation. Soon, rumors started to circulate, suggesting that the quarterback might be unhappy with his team once more or, at the absolute least, that he would be sidelined for Week 14 due to a minor injury.
That fleeting moment is now gone. Jackson missed practice, according to the Ravens, because of a sickness that was going around the locker room. Jackson, who will play against the Rams, is “..feeling good… full of life,” according to Ravens head coach John Harbaugh (Rashod Bateman also missed practice due to illness). He appeared attractive outside. He had returned. He is well again.
Lamar vs. The Rams Jackson
Jackson and his team are both enjoying a fantastic season, making him one of the league’s top contenders for the yearly MVP award. In addition to his 2618 passing yards, Jackson has the most total yards of any non-running back at 573. He also has five rushing and 13 passing touchdowns. Naturally, the Ravens have a 9-3 record and are only lagging behind the Chiefs in Super Bowl odds.
Since Jackson won NFL MVP in his sophomore season of 2019, the Rams have not faced off against him. The Rams suffered their worst defeat of the McVay era that season, falling short 45–6. In 2022, the Rams defeated the Ravens 20–19, but Tyler Huntley started in place of Jackson, who was recovering from a knee injury.
