The Baltimore Ravens lost to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 18 to conclude the 2022 regular season. The Ravens head back to Cincinnati to take on the very same Bengals on Sunday Night in an AFC Wildcard game, so a chance at redemption is still very much on the table for Baltimore.
There has been speculation that quarterback Lamar Jackson could return for the playoff opener, but he’s missed the last month of practice with a knee injury. Head coach John Harbaugh spoke during his weekly Monday afternoon press conference and was asked about if Jackson will practice this week, still not having an update on his quarterback.

“Like I’ve been saying, I don’t really have an update right now to share with you. We’ll have our injury report out on Wednesday because I won’t have a chance to talk to you between now and then. That’s kind of where we’re at.”
The injury to Jackson looks to be a bit more serious than what was initially reported. If Jackson can’t go again, Tyler Huntley would be the starter if he’s able to play. Huntley was inactive for Week 18 with shoulder and wrist injuries, leading the way for the first-career start of Anthony Brown.
