Lamar Jackson is not playing because he suffered a hamstring injury during the Baltimore Ravens' game against the Kansas City Chiefs on September 28, 2025. He left the game in the third quarter and was subsequently listed as questionable to return. The Ravens are taking a cautious approach to his recovery to avoid aggravating the injury, meaning Jackson is sidelined until he is fully healed. Hamstring injuries for quarterbacks typically require 2 to 6 weeks to recover, depending on severity and rehabilitation progress. As of now, there is no definite return timeline, but he is expected to miss at least one or two more games as the medical team monitors his condition.
