Lamar Jackson

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that he expects Lamar Jackson to have rest days “built into his season” moving forward.

Jackson was sidelined by back and knee injuries on Wednesday and Thursday this week but returned to practice as a full participant on Friday. The early-week happenings were surely stressful for fantasy managers but what was once viewed as a negative could actually be viewed positively; the Ravens are prioritizing Jackson’s season-long health. Fantasy managers should be sure to note Jackson’s weekly participation statuses but ought not to fear if and when he shows up as a Wednesday or Thursday DNP.
