Bart Scott and Mike Tannenbaum looked at Lamar Jackson's contract situation and what the Ravens need to do to keep him. There is a time and a place for it.
Even though Lamar Jackson missed his 12th straight practice with a knee injury, John Harbaugh wouldn't say who his starting quarterback would be.
After Friday's practice, Harbaugh was asked if Tyler Huntley would start. You can make that assumption.
The assumption was correct when the Ravens ruled out Jackson for a fourth game.
In Jackson's absence, Huntley has started all three games and has kept Baltimore alive in the race for the division title. The Ravens have scored three touchdown in 15 quarters.
Jackson injured his knee at the end of the first quarter in the Broncos game.
Jackson is handling not playing well. He would like to be playing. It's just accepting the process and focusing on getting himself healthy so he can be ready to play when it's most important.
Most players take one to three weeks to recover from an injured knee, according to a source. Harbaugh initially described Jackson as week-to-week.
The quicker we can get him back, the better. We'd love to get some work in before the playoffs, but you have to be careful. He has to be right at the same time.
If the Ravens win their final two games, they will win the division. The Baltimore Ravens play host to the PittsburghSteelers on Sunday while the CincinnatiBengals play host to the PittsburghSteelers on Monday.
The Pittsburgh Steelers have a small chance of making the playoffs. Pittsburgh can't make the playoffs before Sunday. If the Miami Dolphins win at New England on Sunday, it will start at 1 pm. A loss in Baltimore would knock the Steelers out of the race for the playoffs.
