Jackson's Week 1 performance was encouraging, as he looked like his 2024 self rather than the concerning 2025 version. He generated 29 yards after contact as a rusher and was involved enough in Baltimore's run game to draw defensive eyes, even though he wasn't featured. This is described as incredible news for Derrick Henry, as it sets a floor on the Ravens' passing offense and draws attention away from the running back.
