It does not come as much of a surprise that Jackson isn’t playing Sunday, seeing as he’s only practiced once over the past few weeks and he looked in rough shape during the media viewable portion. However, some held out hope he would come back and face the Pittsburgh Steelers in the regular season finale.
This seems all but a formality after Ravens Head Coach John Harbaugh announced backup quarterback Tyler Huntley was going to start on Sunday.

Along with Jackson, the Ravens also cornerback Anthony Averett will be out for Sunday’s contest. Barring a new contract, we may have seen the last of Averett as a Baltimore Raven.
There are three players listed as questionable for Sunday, those being wide receiver Devin Duvernay and offensive linemen Ben Powers (foot) and Ben Cleveland (head).
Outside linebacker Odafe Oweh (foot) is listed as doubtful after missing last weeks game against the Los Angeles Rams.
