Lamar Jackson’s return to the Baltimore Ravens offense lasted all of one play on Sunday before he was injured once again.
The Baltimore Ravens quarterback started his first game since Oct. 4 against the Buffalo Bills. However, on his first play in nearly a month and the Ravens’ first offensive snap of the game, Jackson injured his right thumb.

The team initially reported Jackson was questionable to return with a right thumb injury, but within a few minutes, it said Jackson was done for the game.
Tyler Huntley took over at quarterback for the Ravens.
And this is all too familiar for Baltimore.
