🔮 But at the same time, you have to be healthy enough to play and that’s how we would really treat any player.”
🔮 Now the updates on Lamar Jackson’s status — vague as they may be — take on even more significance.
🔮 Malik Washington’s second touchdown pass of the game, a 10-yarder to DeJuan Williams, brought Maryland back within seven with 2:17 to play.
🔮 OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) — Lamar Jackson will miss a second straight game this weekend because of his ankle injury.
