Ravens-Steelers: Jackson's status looms large
30 Dec
Summary
- Ravens QB Lamar Jackson's playoff status uncertain due to back injury.
- Sunday's game winner clinches AFC North and playoff spot.
- Coach Harbaugh's job may be on the line if Ravens lose.

The upcoming Sunday night game between the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers has become a decisive playoff decider. The winner will claim the AFC North title, while the loser's season concludes.
Ravens' two-time MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson's participation is currently uncertain due to a back contusion sustained in Week 16. Coach John Harbaugh indicated that Jackson's status is "to be determined" but affirmed he would play if medically cleared, emphasizing the team's confidence in backup Tyler Huntley does not influence this decision.
Beyond the playoff implications, significant pressure rests on Coach Harbaugh, with reports of potential job repercussions if the Ravens miss the postseason again. Unsubstantiated reports of discord between Harbaugh and Jackson add further intrigue to the already high-stakes matchup.
