Lamar Jackson cleared to travel to Baltimore with team after suffering concussion

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson’s head bounced off the turf after taking a vicious hit by a Buffalo Bills defender. Though Jackson was able to get to his feet and walk into the locker room under his own power, he was quickly ruled out with a concussion. While the injury ultimately knocked Jackson out of the divisional playoff game against the Bills, it doesn’t appear to be too serious.

According to The Athletic’s Jeff Zrebiec and ESPN’s Jamison Hensley, Jackson has been cleared to travel. He’ll fly back to Baltimore with the rest of the team. Ravens wide receiver Willie Snead told reporters he had talked with Jackson after the game, saying Baltimore’s quarterback is “doing all right.”

It was a rough night for Jackson, who was often harassed and hit by the Bills’ defense. He finished the game completing 14-of-24 passes for 162 passing yards, no touchdowns, and a pick-six. Buffalo managed to get eight quarterback hits and three sacks on Jackson through three quarters.

Luckily, it seems as though Jackson is fine. While the night has been a disappointment, at least that silver lining is there.
