After 35-13 Loss, Minter Says Lamar Jackson Should Be in a 'Decent Spot' for Sunday at Buffalo; Ravens Will Know More Wednesday

Jackson has missed three straight starts with a high ankle sprain. The Ravens, 4-3 after two straight losses, also are waiting on rookie Vega Ioane's knee and signed veteran safety Rayshawn Jenkins to the practice squad.

OWINGS MILLS, MARYLAND — Ravens head coach Jesse Minter said Monday that Lamar Jackson should be in "a decent spot" for Sunday's game at Buffalo, a day after Baltimore blew a 13-0 halftime lead and lost 35-13 to Cincinnati.

"I think he'll be in a decent spot, but we'll know a lot more on Wednesday," Minter said, according to the team. The Ravens resume practice Wednesday.

Jackson has missed three straight starts since a high ankle sprain in Week 4 against Tennessee and has not had a full practice since, the team reported. He was ruled out the day before the Bengals game.

The Ravens (4-3) visit the Bills (5-1) on Sunday, Nov. 1, at 1 p.m. A loss would be Baltimore's third straight.

Minter also said the team was still evaluating rookie right guard Vega Ioane, who left Sunday's game with a knee injury and did not return. "We'll know more on Wednesday," he said.

With safety Jaylinn Hawkins dealing with a knee injury, the Ravens signed veteran safety Rayshawn Jenkins, 32, to their practice squad. Jenkins has started 92 NFL games and spent the first six games of this season with Pittsburgh, making one start.

Asked about leadership, Minter said the team is still sorting out who rallies the sideline when a game turns. "I think as a team, we're working through who that is," he said.

Wednesday's practice report becomes the week's first real answer.
