Ravens Face Playoff Threats as Jackson Plans Hasty Return from Hamstring Injury

News summary

The Baltimore Ravens are facing a critical situation in their 2025 NFL season, currently holding a 1-3 record and dealing with significant injuries, including to their two-time MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson. Jackson suffered a hamstring injury during a loss to the Kansas City Chiefs and is expected to miss two to three weeks, including the upcoming game against the Houston Texans, forcing backup quarterbacks Cooper Rush and Tyler Huntley to step in. Sportsbooks have reacted sharply, moving the Ravens from favorites to underdogs in their next game due to Jackson's uncertain status and the team's overall struggles. While Jackson may attempt to play through the injury, experts caution that doing so could worsen his condition and jeopardize the season further. The Ravens' playoff hopes hinge on how well the backups perform during Jackson's absence, with some analysts warning that a 1-5 start could effectively end their season. The team's management and medical staff face tough decisions to balance Jackson's health against the urgent need for wins in a highly competitive AFC division.
