Lamar Jackson: 'Probably' miss practices, dealing with new injuries

Baltimore Ravens star Lamar Jackson indicated that missing practices could be a regular occurrence for him as the season progresses, citing recent ankle and knee soreness. This marks a new phase in his career, as he navigates in-season injuries for the first time. He previously missed three games earlier in the season due to a hamstring issue. Jackson's performance has also been under scrutiny due to a high number of sacks. He has been sacked 23 times in his last seven games, a significant increase from the previous season.

Jackson expressed surprise and concern upon learning the number of times he's been sacked this season, humorously stating he needs to speak with his offensive line. The quarterback is facing a 39.8% pressure rate, the sixth highest among qualifying quarterbacks. His sack percentage under pressure is reportedly the highest of his career, according to PFF, raising concerns about his durability and the offensive line's protection.
