Lamar Jackson Misses Practice; Cooper Rush Set to Start Again

Cooper Rush is poised to start again for the Baltimore Ravens this weekend as quarterback Lamar Jackson misses practice due to a hamstring injury. This marks Jackson’s continued absence, dating back to his injury sustained in Week 4 against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Lamar Jackson’s Injury Status
Jackson has not participated in practices since the Week 4 loss, raising concerns about his availability for upcoming games. The Ravens are currently preparing for a bye in Week 7, which may provide Jackson with additional recovery time. This could potentially set him up for a return by Week 8.
Cooper Rush’s Performance
In his previous game, Rush completed 14 of 20 passes for 179 yards. However, he recorded three interceptions in the Ravens’ loss to the Houston Texans last week. His performance will be critical as he leads the team against the Los Angeles Rams.
Injury Updates
- Roquan Smith (Linebacker) – Hamstring: Did not practice
- Devontez Walker (Receiver) – Oblique: Did not practice
- Chidobe Awuzie (Cornerback) – Hamstring: Present during practice
The Ravens are expected to release a detailed injury report later today, outlining player statuses for the upcoming game against the Rams on Sunday.
