Lamar Jackson Tests Positive For COVID-19

Published|Updated

Quarterback Lamar Jackson will not take part in Baltimore's training camp practice on Wednesday, as the quarterback has had a positive COVID-19 test.




It is unclear how long Jackson will be sidelined following the positive COVID-19 test. He missed one game last season for a positive COVID-19 test in Week 12.

In 2020, Jackson was very good. He started 15 games and threw for 2,757 yards and 26 scores. While Jackson's passing game continues to develop, he also remains a huge threat in the run game. Last season, he ran for 1,007 yards and seven scores.

The Ravens went ahead and re-signed QB Kenji Bahar to the 90-man roster Wednesday to add depth to the position.

Bahar was with the team in the spring but was then released in June.

Trace McSorley, Tyler Huntley and Jackson make up the other quarterbacks currently on the roster.
