Lamar misses 2nd straight practice due to non-COVID-19-related illness

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson didn't practice Thursday due to a non-COVID-19-related illness, according to ESPN's Jamison Hensley.

Jackson missed Wednesday's session after being sent home with an illness, though head coach John Harbaugh said it wasn't COVID-19.

This is the fourth time an illness has sidelined the signal-caller this season, according to Hensley. However, Jackson, who also dealt with a back injury in Week 4, hasn't missed a game this campaign.

The 24-year-old has completed 64.4% of his passes for 14 touchdowns and eight interceptions in 2021. He's also Baltimore's leading rusher with 639 yards.

The Ravens are coming off a 22-10 loss to the Miami Dolphins last Thursday. Jackson finished the game with a 73.6 passer rating, his second-lowest rating of the season.

Baltimore owns a 6-3 record and will hit the road to face the Chicago Bears on Sunday. Tyler Huntley is expected to fill in for Jackson if he can't suit up.
