The Baltimore Ravens hope Lamar Jackson can play in Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams despite his right ankle injury. Jackson hasn't practiced since badly limping on Wednesday. 

Tyler Huntley, who has filled in capably this season, would be in line to start if Jackson can't play.

The Baltimore Ravens and Patrick Mekari have agreed to a three-year extension worth $15.35 million.

Mekari was set to be a restricted free agent and will now receive $7 million in guaranteed money.

Mekari became Batlimore's starting right tackle this season.

Tyler Huntley has tested positive for COVID-19 and will miss Sunday's game for the Baltimore Ravens. Huntley was scheduled to start at quarterback for the Ravens in place of Lamar Jackson.

The Ravens will start Josh Johnson at quarterback. Johnson hasn't started a game in three years. Johnson has a 1-7 career record as a starter. 

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey was diagnosed with a season-ending right pectoral muscle tear on Monday.

Humphrey, 25, became the seventh starter (and third in the secondary) to get sidelined for the season for the Ravens.

He was injured in Sunday's 20-19 loss in Pittsburgh to the Steelers when he tried to tackle Diontae Johnson before the wide receiver scored the go-ahead touchdown late in the fourth quarter.

John Harbaugh said his decision to go for two near the end of the Baltimore Ravens' narrow loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers had a lot to do with the team's injury situation.

With 12 seconds remaining, the Ravens went for a potential game-winning 2-point conversion instead of settling for a tying point-after kick. The try was unsuccessful and the Steelers escaped with a 20-19 victory.

Asked why he went for two instead of the PAT to force overtime, Harbaugh said: "[We're] trying to win the game right there. We were pretty much out of corners at that point in time. It was an opportunity to try to win the game right there."

The analytics slightly favored Baltimore going for two points (47.1%) over the kick (46.5%), according to ESPN Stats & Information research.
