Baltimore Ravens fans, relax! Star quarterback Lamar Jackson had a little scare when his foot got stepped on during practice this week. But coach John Harbaugh quickly shared some great news—Jackson is perfectly fine! An X-ray test showed no major damage, and Jackson is expected to be ready to rock and roll for Week 1 of the regular NFL season. Before all the fuss, Jackson was already planned to sit out the preseason finale game against the Washington Commanders. Harbaugh explained, “I told the guys, ‘Prayers do get answered.’ I was praying.” This shows just how much the team cares about their star player’s health. During Wednesday’s team drill, Jackson went down after his foot was stepped on. He looked a bit uncomfortable and left the field with the training staff. Still, he stayed on for a few more plays but threw a few passes that missed the mark, hinting he wasn’t 100%. Luckily, the quick X-ray came back clear! Harbaugh reassured everyone, “There’s no damage or anything like that. I’m sure it’s a little sore today, so we just kept him in. He’s going to be good.” Since Jackson won’t play in Saturday’s game, backup quarterback Cooper Rush will take the spotlight and lead the offense. This move is all about saving Jackson’s energy and keeping him healthy for the real battles ahead. With the star quarterback in good spirits and fit to fight, Baltimore’s focus is now laser-sharp on keeping their superstar ready for the regular season kickoff. Ravens fans, get ready for an exciting season, with your MVP shining bright!
