2026 Week 5 Fantasy Football: Lamar Jackson Limited at Practice but Expected to Play vs. Titans

The Ravens' QB dealt with something minor Wednesday — don't panic on him yet.

Lamar Jackson is dealing with a minor issue but is not expected to miss Sunday's game against the Titans, according to ProFootballTalk (NBC Sports). Jackson was absent from the open portion of Wednesday's practice, which briefly sparked concern, but Ravens head coach Jesse Minter confirmed he did eventually participate in a limited role.

"Lamar was at practice in a little limited role. Just dealing with something small," Minter said, per ProFootballTalk (NBC Sports), adding that the early absence was not a big deal. His status will be updated over the next couple of days — Thursday and Friday injury reports will tell us more. For now, though, Minter's tone makes it clear this is not a sit-him situation. Start Jackson with confidence unless something changes later this week.
