In brief
Ja'Kobi Lane's injury timeline is better than feared, but Baltimore's receiver room faces fresh uncertainty. Lane should return in about a month after wrist surgery, but the Ravens must manage injuries to multiple receivers in the meantime. Originally reported by Baltimore Ravens On SI.
Lane's wrist injury less severe than feared
Ja'Kobi Lane will have surgery to repair a wrist fracture and is expected back in about a month, much sooner than initially thought.
Lane got hurt in Ravens' big win
The rookie caught one pass for 11 yards in Baltimore's 41-23 victory over Indianapolis before the injury occurred.
Zay Flowers also dealing with injury
Star receiver Zay Flowers is day-to-day with a hamstring injury after posting a career-high 150 yards and a touchdown against the Colts.
Ravens sign practice squad receiver
Baltimore worked out four receivers and signed Gage Larvadain to the practice squad as insurance for the injured wide receiver room.
Five receivers saw action Sunday
Rashod Bateman led with 78 percent snap count, while Chris Moore, LaJohntay Wester, Lane, and Flowers all got playing time in the win.
Bateman likely to see more targets
With Lane sidelined and Flowers' status uncertain, Rashod Bateman should see increased opportunities in the coming weeks.
Jackson and Henry dominated Sunday
Lamar Jackson went 17-for-25 for 324 yards and a touchdown, while Derrick Henry rushed for 144 yards and three touchdowns on 24 carries.
Ravens may lean on ground game
Baltimore had 37 rushing attempts against Indianapolis and could rely heavily on the run game while managing receiver injuries.
The short version
Lane should return in about a month after wrist surgery, but the Ravens must manage injuries to multiple receivers in the meantime.
