Ravens' Flacco misses 2nd straight practice, Jackson also absent
The Baltimore Ravens were minus two of their three quarterbacks during Thursday's practice, according to ESPN's Jamison Hensley.
Joe Flacco didn't participate in practice for the second straight day due to a hip injury, and it remains to be seen whether he'll start Baltimore's Week 11 tilt with the Cincinnati Bengals.
Head coach John Harbaugh has stated that Flacco doesn't require any practice time in order to play Sunday.
To add intrigue to the Ravens' quarterback situation, rookie Lamar Jackson also missed Thursday's practice. The team cited an illness as the reason for his absence and a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter that he's dealing with a stomach issue.
Jackson, one of Baltimore's two first-round picks in this year's draft, was expected to start in place of Flacco should he be deemed unable to play.
Robert Griffin III was the only signal-caller who participated in practice Thursday. Griffin hasn't started an NFL game since the 2016 finale.
