OWINGS MILLS, MARYLAND — Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals with an ankle injury, and Tyler Huntley will start in his place, the team reported.
It is the third straight game the two-time MVP will miss. Jackson was hurt in Week 4 against the Tennessee Titans and was limited in practice Wednesday, but he said Friday that he still felt pain when he ran.
"If I can't do that, I can't help my team," Jackson said at his Friday news conference. "I can't put my team in a situation like that."
Huntley led a comeback win in Atlanta but was less sharp in last weekend's loss at Cleveland, where Baltimore scored 10 points on its first two drives and none after that. The Ravens had won the three previous games Huntley started, going back to last season.
"We just have to," Huntley said of getting the offense back on track. "That's what we are going to have to do to win."
In Saturday's roster moves, the Ravens placed outside linebacker Tavius Robinson on injured reserve with his season-ending pectoral injury and elevated outside linebacker Adisa Isaac from the practice squad. Guard Kyle Hergel was signed to the 53-man roster after using his third and final practice-squad elevation in Week 6.
The Ravens (4-2) host the Bengals (3-2) at 1 p.m. Sunday at M&T Bank Stadium on CBS, with the radio call on WBAL (1090 AM) and 98 Rock (97.9 FM).
Baltimore turns to Huntley again, against a second straight AFC North opponent.
