Jackson's thumb injury requires surgery; placed on IR for minimum 4 games, season in jeopardy

Jackson suffered a thumb injury on his first pass attempt of his return from a month-long ankle sprain absence, requiring surgery. Ravens head coach Jesse Minter placed him on injured reserve (IR), meaning he will miss at least the next four games with potential to be shut down for the remainder of the season. Jackson has stated he refuses to play at anything less than full health, and Baltimore's season hangs by a thread; if the Ravens aren't competitive by Week 14 against Tampa Bay, expect Jackson to miss the rest of the season.
