DeSean Jackson Still Out Sick Thursday
2 years agoBaltimore Ravens wide receiver DeSean Jackson (illness) was absent from practice on Thursday for the second day in a row. Jackson's status for the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals is now in jeopardy, although a return to practice on Friday would put him in a good spot to be able to play. Now that Sunday's game against Cincy won't give Baltimore a chance to win the AFC North division, it's likely that the Ravens won't put their starters in danger of suffering any injuries before the postseason. It means that there's a chance D-Jax is rested this weekend. None of the Ravens' pass-catchers have really been attractive in fantasy with backup quarterback Tyler Huntley under center anyway. If Jackson is unable to play, Sammy Watkins and James Proche II would have bigger roles behind Demarcus Robinson.
