Ja'Kobi Lane suffers significant injury in Ravens' Week 1 game

Summary

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane sustained a fractured left wrist during their Week 1 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. The injury occurred in the second quarter on a fourth-and-goal play when Lane was knocked down after a high pass from quarterback Lamar Jackson. Lane managed just one catch for 11 yards in his NFL debut. An MRI will determine the severity of the injury, and his absence will impact the Ravens' wide receiver depth as they look to support Zay Flowers. The team may consider signing a veteran free agent to cover for Lane as they await further information on his recovery timeline.
