Lamar Jackson did not start for the Baltimore Ravens against the Atlanta Falcons on October 11, 2026. The team ruled him out on the Friday before the game with an ankle sprain sustained during Baltimore's Week 4 win over the Tennessee Titans, when he was injured on a sack and did not return for the second half. Backup quarterback Tyler Huntley, who had filled in during that second half, was named the starter against Atlanta.
Reports indicated the injury was not considered season-ending or likely to require surgery, but team and media sources said Jackson could miss more than one game depending on how his recovery progressed. The decision to sit Jackson against Atlanta reflected a cautious approach to a recurring injury concern for a quarterback whose game relies heavily on mobility.
The ruling came after a week of uncertainty in which Jackson was initially described as a "longshot" possibility to play, before the Ravens officially downgraded him to out. His absence put additional pressure on Huntley to carry Baltimore's offense on the road against Atlanta.
