Jackson returns, on track to play vs. Jaguars
RB Edwards, G Zeitler back to practicing in full Thursday
Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson remains on track to play in Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars after returning to practice Thursday as a full participant.
Jackson missed practice Wednesday with a hip injury, but coach John Harbaugh said afterward that the team “just wanted to hold him back and let him rest.” Harbaugh said Jackson, who had a hip “issue” during Sunday’s win over the Carolina Panthers, would be available Sunday in Jacksonville.
Running back Gus Edwards (hamstring/ knee) was also a full participant in practice for the first time since leaving the Ravens’ Week 8 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Edwards has missed the team’s past two games, but Harbaugh was optimistic Monday that he’d play Sunday.
Guard Kevin Zeitler, who missed practice Wednesday with an illness, also practiced fully Thursday.
Left tackle Ronnie Stanley (ankle), safety Kyle Hamilton (knee) and cornerback Jalyn Armour-Davis (hip) remain sidelined. Harbaugh said Wednesday that both Stanley and Hamilton are “day to day” after leaving Sunday’s game with minor injuries, but if neither practices Friday, they’ll likely be inactive against the Jaguars.
Wide receiver Demarcus Robinson, who had a season-high 128 receiving yards Sunday against Carolina, missed practice Thursday with a hip injury after being a full participant Wednesday.
The Jaguars, who are coming off a bye, reported no injuries.
