Lamar Jackson's return to the field was short-lived, lasting only one play before he injured his right thumb in a clash with Buffalo's Greg Rousseau. Jackson left the game and is expected to undergo surgery, placing him on injured reserve. The Ravens suffered a 36-10 defeat against the Bills, marking their third consecutive loss, now placing their record at 4-4. Tyler Huntley replaced Jackson but also exited due to a right toe injury. Rookie Joe Fagnano made his NFL debut, completing 10 of 21 passes for 91 yards, with one interception and a fumble.
