The Happy Highlight- Highlighting the locals who make Baltimore brighter!

Lamar Jackson returned for Thursday Night Football (Oct. 30) this past week to face off against the Miami Dolphins, after a lengthy absence in light of his hamstring injury.  This was Jackson’s first time back on the field since Week 4 (Sept. 28) against the Chiefs where he was pulled from the game after sustaining a hamstring injury in the third quarter. 

Jackson snapped back into action quickly though, easily putting up 4 passing touchdowns throughout the course of the game.  Also boasting a 78.3% completion percentage (18/23) and 204 passing yards.  Leading the way, Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens were able to overcome the Miami Dolphins with a final score of 28-6.  Ravens' fans are obviously overjoyed with this news, especially following their win against the Chicago Bear the week prior.  Despite their recent success, some fans are still skeptical about how far the Ravens can go this season with their current 3-5 record. 

Pro Bowler Defensive Tackle Nnamdi Madubuike was declared out for the season Sept. 29, and other key defensive players like Ronnie Stanley, Roger Rosengarten, Roquan Smith, Chidobe Awuzie, Patrick Ricard, Kyle Van Noy, Tyler Lindenbaum, Kyle Hamilton, and Nate Wiggins have all been on the injury report to some extent within the past 9 weeks.  

With this many injuries it is clear why the Ravens have been struggling this season, but with the return of Lamar Jackson heating up again and a somewhat easier schedule moving forward, the Ravens still have a very real chance of winning their division. 

The rest of the season’s schedule is shown below:

• Week 10: Sunday, Nov. 9 @ Minnesota Vikings (1:00 p.m. ET, FOX)
