Ravens mum on Lamar Jackson missing practice
Sep 5, 2024; Kansas City, Missouri, USA; Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (8) runs the ball as Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Tershawn Wharton (98) chases during the second half at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Denny Medley-Imagn Images Lamar Jackson was among a collection of Baltimore Ravens players who missed practice Monday.
Coach John Harbaugh wouldn't delve into specific reasons why his star quarterback, cornerback Nate Wiggins and receiver/return specialist Deonte Harty were absent from practice, saying some players had physical issues and some had personal reasons.
"Injury report comes out Wednesday afternoon," Harbaugh said as Baltimore began its preparation for its home opener Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders.
The Ravens were on the practice field Monday because they had a long weekend following their 27-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the NFL season opener Thursday.
Jackson completed 26 of 41 passes for 273 yards and a touchdown and racked up 122 rushing yards on 16 attempts in that game. The Ravens lost after an apparent touchdown on the last play of regulation was overturned, with tight end Isaiah Likely ruled out of bounds on his catch.
Jackson, 27, missed four practice sessions early in training camp due to an illness. The 27-year-old is the reigning NFL Most Valuable Player, winning the award for the second time last year.
Linebackers Kyle Van Noy and Adisa Isaac also missed practice, but for reasons that were more obvious. Van Noy injured an eye during the Chiefs game, with reports saying he sustained a fractured orbital bone. Issac has a hamstring strain.
