Lamar Jackson will miss Thursday Night Football against Jacksonville after suffering a right thumb injury that requires surgery and a move to injured reserve; Ravens coach Jesse Minter said Monday evening that Jackson had not yet undergone the procedure. Backup Tyler Huntley also has a toe injury, leaving Baltimore’s starting quarterback unsettled, with a banged-up Joe Fagnano potentially taking the reins. Jacksonville enters at 5-2 after dismantling Indianapolis 42-7, powered by Trevor Lawrence’s three touchdown passes and Bhayshul Tuten’s 104 rushing yards and two total touchdowns.
