More hope for Jackson?

Lamar Jackson Headshot

ESPN's Adam Schefter hears that Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) "was moving around better in practice this weekend, raising some hopes - however unlikely - he could make it back" for today's game vs. the Packers. Schefter adds that Jackson is dealing with a bone bruise in his ankle, not an ankle sprain as originally reported. It still sounds like Jackson is worse than 50/50 to start today -- and we won't get his official game status until 3 pm ET. We'll be on the lookout for further updates. But, as of now, Jackson should still be on fantasy benches.
