The Baltimore Ravens‘ quarterback situation may not be as clear as it was hoped.
Lamar Jackson got back to practice this week, being limited on Wednesday and Thursday before being a full participant in Friday’s practice.
The Ravens play the Chicago Bears on Sunday in Week 8, and it seemed like after two missed games, Jackson would be back from his hamstring injury that he sustained in Week 4.
Instead, the news Saturday morning isn’t good. Jackson may not play after all.

Is Lamar Jackson playing this week?
Lamar Jackson is officially listed as questionable to play in Week 8 for the Ravens against the Bears, and the chances seem to be getting worse.
On Saturday morning, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that Jackson ran the scout team on Friday, rather than getting reps with the first-team offense.
That’s “an indication that the two-time MVP is a week away from returning despite having a full practice,” Rapoport wrote.
On Friday, Ravens coach John Harbaugh said, “We’ll see where we’re at going forward,” as far as the QB situation goes.
Who is starting QB for the Ravens in Week 8?
We won’t know for sure until Sunday, when the Ravens’ inactive report and lineup come out.
It’s looking like it might be Tyler Huntley, though.
The Ravens started Cooper Rush in Jackson’s first two absences, but Huntley has been signed to the active roster.
If Jackson is out, Huntley is expected to start.
