It's amazing how quickly hopes can fade when it comes to hearing potential injury news.
If the Baltimore Ravens' team spokesman is correct, the injury scare lasted a short time. But for those very brief seconds, it was a reminder of how quickly things can turn when a franchise face is injured.
The Ravens suffered a short yet traumatic scare at practice on Wednesday when Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson left the practice field early. Per beat reporter Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic, Jackson left with 40 minutes left in practice with the team's strength and conditioning coach in tow, along with team doctors.
