Lamar Jackson all set to miss Chicago Bears clash due to a non-COVID illness
Lamar Jackson missed practise this week due to a non-COVID illness. There have been reports of him suffering from a non COVID virus but it looks like the matter got serious. As on Saturday, he was demoted to questionable with the same ailment. Even though Jackson travelled to Chicago with the squad and tried to be prepared, it was eventually too much for him.
Reliable NFL insider Ian Rapoport was the first to break the news on Twitter. “Lamar Jackson is dealing with a virus so bad that he’s simply not himself. He flew to Chicago and tried to stay hydrated. But it was too much. He’s out,” he tweeted.

Chicago Bears get a shot in the arm with Baltimore Ravens’ first choice quarterback’s absence
Jackson’s absence means that Tyler Huntley will start against the Bears at Soldier Field for the first time in his career. The news is a major setback for Baltimore, who will be without one of the league’s most explosive quarterbacks as they attempt to maintain their lead in the AFC North. Jackson contributes a lot to the Ravens offence and his absence has given a tremendous break to the Bears defence.
