Lamar Jackson threw for 324 yards and ran for a touchdown as the Baltimore Ravens secured a notable 41-23 victory over the Indianapolis Colts on September 14, 2026. The Ravens amassed 506 total yards, showcasing an effective offensive strategy under new coordinator Declan Doyle. However, injuries to key wide receivers Zay Flowers and Ja’Kobi Lane raised concerns for Baltimore moving forward. Flowers posted 150 receiving yards before leaving the game due to hamstring issues, and Lane exited with a wrist injury. The Ravens will aim to address their injury issues as they prepare for their home opener against the New Orleans Saints next weekend.

- 5:04 PMYahoo Sports — Baltimore's offense looked terrific in the opener, but injuries at wide receiver are concerning
"Lamar Jackson dropped back on third-and-16, and as the pocket collapsed, he somehow ducked between a couple of pass rushers before finding a running lane and taking off for the first down. From the start, it was clear that the engine of Baltimore's offense was back. Jackson threw for 324 yards and a touchdown and also ran for a score, looking as spry as Baltimore had hoped after an injury-plagued 2025.
