The Baltimore Ravens came away from Thursday Night Football with a much-needed win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
While the Ravens added a win to their win total, it came at a cost.
Mark Andrews left the game with an apparently serious ankle injury, leaving the Ravens without a marquee pass-catcher.
Lamar Jackson also injured his ankle during the game but finished the rest of the contest without significant hindrance.
This potential injury was concerning to many fans, but Jackson tried to quell those concerns in a postgame press conference.
According to Jackson via reporter Jonas Shaffer, he noted that he should be “good for the Chargers.”

The Ravens take on the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 12, their final matchup before their Week 13 bye.
Jackson appears confident that he will play in this game, hoping to extend the Ravens’ lead in their divisional race.
The good news is that he’ll have extra time to heal and prepare for this contest given their Thursday Night Football game this week.
Jackson has suffered other ankle injuries in the past.
Last season, he missed several games due to injury, and with this bothering him again, this might be a recurring theme throughout the rest of his career.
If he persists through this injury against the Chargers and rests well throughout their bye week, Jackson should be poised to make a strong finish for the Ravens’ final games of the season.
Can they keep their foot on the gas for the rest of the season, hoping to win the AFC North for the first time since 2019?
