Herbert's Ankle Status: Update From Harbaugh
The Baltimore Ravens' quarterback, Lamar Jackson, suffered a sprained ankle in the game against the Denver Broncos on December 4th, 2022. Jackson left the game in the second quarter and did not return. The severity of the sprain has been a major concern for the Ravens and their fans, with speculation about Jackson's availability for the upcoming games.
On December 5th, 2022, Ravens Head Coach John Harbaugh addressed the media and provided an update on Jackson's ankle injury.
Harbaugh's Update
Harbaugh stated that Jackson's injury is considered "mild," and that he is expected to be sidelined for "a couple of weeks." The coach also emphasized the importance of taking a cautious approach to Jackson's recovery, saying that they "don't want to rush anything."
"He's going to be day-to-day," Harbaugh said. "We'll see how he progresses."
What This Means For The Ravens
This update brings some relief for the Ravens, but it also highlights the uncertainty surrounding Jackson's return. With a crucial game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on the horizon, the team will need to rely on backup quarterback Tyler Huntley to lead the offense.
While Jackson's absence is a major blow to the Ravens, the "mild" nature of the sprain suggests that he could potentially return before the end of the regular season. However, the team's focus will be on ensuring Jackson's complete recovery and avoiding any further complications.
Looking Ahead
The coming days and weeks will be critical in determining Jackson's recovery timeline. The Ravens will continue to monitor his progress and provide updates as they become available.
The Ravens' fans will be eagerly awaiting news on Jackson's status, hoping for a swift return of their star quarterback.
In the meantime, the team will need to rally around Huntley and maintain their playoff aspirations.
