Lamar Jackson’s season may be over.
Ravens head coach Jesse Minter said after Sunday’s loss to the Bills that the two-time NFL MVP will undergo surgery on his right thumb and be placed on injured reserve, which means Jackson will miss a minimum of four games.
Asked if the surgery will end Jackson’s season, Minter said. “Potentially.” We’ll see where it’s at.”
Jackson, 29, had just returned after a three-game absence due to a high-ankle sprain when he injured his thumb on his first play in Orchard Park.
He left the game and was quickly ruled out for the rest of the afternoon.
Backup quarterback Tyler “Snoop” Huntley also left Sunday’s 36-10 loss with a toe injury, which forced undrafted UConn rookie Joe Fagnano into action.
The Ravens fell to 4-4 and are in last place in the AFC North.
