Ravens’ Lamar Jackson (hamstring) status unclear for Week 5; Nnamdi Madubuike (neck) out for season

Harbaugh declined to say if Jackson will practice on Wednesday, but he did confirm that the Ravens’ 17-point deficit to the Chiefs in the second half was not a factor in the team’s decision to sit the two-time MVP.

“There was no way he could have gone back in the game,” Harbaugh said.

While questions surround Jackson’s status for Sunday, Harbaugh said on Monday that standout defensive tackle Nnamdi Madubuike, a two-time Pro Bowler, would miss the rest of the 2025 season due to the neck injury that caused him to be placed on injured reserve last week.

Harbaugh would not speculate on Madubuike’s availability for next season.

The Ravens also are expected to be without linebacker Roquan Smith (Grade 2 hamstring strain) and cornerback Marlon Humphrey (calf) for a couple of weeks, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported on Monday, per sources.

Baltimore host the Houston Texans (1-3) on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.
