The Baltimore Ravens’ 2025 NFL season hasn’t gone to plan. Regarded as one of the top rosters in the NFL, the Ravens were expected to compete in the AFC all season.
After its bye in Week 7, the team sits at 1-5 and last in the AFC North.
The Ravens lost in Week 1 to Buffalo as the Bills made a late push for victory. They got back on track in Week 2 against Cleveland but dropped their next four games, including a loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Two-time MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson suffered a hamstring injury in the loss to Kansas City that kept him out of the final two games before the bye.
Baltimore got run over in those two games, losing by a combined score of 61-13. The Ravens have been hit hard by injuries on both sides of the ball, but losing Jackson may loom largest.
Baltimore is back in action in Week 8 at home against the Chicago Bears. Will the Ravens have their franchise quarterback under center for the game? Here’s what we know:
Lamar Jackson injury update
The Ravens will be without their starting quarterback once again in Week 8 against the Bears. Baltimore confirmed Jackson’s status Saturday.
Tyler Huntley will start for the first time this season against Chicago. Baltimore had previously started Cooper Rush but made a QB change in Week 6 in the loss to the Los Angeles Rams.
Huntley returned to the Ravens from the Browns after training camp cuts. He went 10 of 15 passing (66.7%) for 68 yards against the Rams.
The Ravens issued another statement later Saturday explaining the change to Jackson’s status:

Rush signed with the Ravens during the offseason and started the year as the No. 2 quarterback. Last year he went 4-4 as a starter for the Dallas Cowboys after Dak Prescott’s injury.
