Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson will undergo surgery and has been placed on injured reserve, according to a report from USA TODAY on Sunday. The move effectively ends Jackson's 2026 season.
The specific nature of the injury and the surgical procedure were not immediately disclosed. Jackson, a two-time NFL MVP, has been the centerpiece of the Ravens' offense since being drafted in 2018.
With Jackson sidelined, Baltimore will turn to its backup quarterback options for the remainder of the campaign. The Ravens' playoff aspirations will now depend heavily on the performance of their reserve signal-callers and the team's defensive unit.
