The story, neutrally told

Mixed · 2The Baltimore Ravens have ruled out quarterback Lamar Jackson for Sunday's road game against the Cleveland Browns because of an ankle injury, making it his second straight missed game. Mixed · 2Coach Jesse Minter said on Friday that Jackson would not play; Newsweek says ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the decision. Mixed · 2Jackson was hurt taking a sack near the end of the first half of the Ravens' Week 4 win over the Tennessee Titans on Oct. 4, and Newsweek says he has not practiced since.

Centre · 1Newsweek reports there had been optimism earlier in the week that Jackson could return, and that Minter called his recovery day-to-day on Wednesday, saying: "He's doing everything he can to be out here, and when he's able to be, he will." Mixed · 2Backup Tyler Huntley will start again after leading the Ravens (4-1) to a 30-23 overtime win at the Atlanta Falcons, in which Newsweek says he completed 24 of 32 passes for 201 yards and two touchdowns and scored a 1-yard touchdown run in overtime. Right · 1Huntley also won both his starts for Baltimore last season, when Jackson missed four games and the team went 2-2; the two losses were started by Cooper Rush, according to Fox News, carrying Associated Press reporting.

Centre · 1Cleveland is 3-2 and could tie Baltimore atop the AFC North with a win; Newsweek notes Browns coach Todd Monken was previously the Ravens' offensive coordinator and suggests Baltimore may lean on Derrick Henry and the running game.
