Uh oh. A big injury update has arrived in the AFC North, and it involves the Pittsburgh Steelers' divisional rival Baltimore Ravens and their star quarterback Lamar Jackson.

According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, the Ravens are expecting Jackson to miss around six to nine weeks after undergoing surgery to repair his fractured and dislocated thumb. Rapoport also added that the Ravens do expect him to return this season.

If Jackson was able to comeback in around six weeks, the earliest possible return date of his reported recovery, he may be available for the Ravens during the Week 15 matchup against the Steelers. If his injury timeline is closer to nine weeks, Baltimore's Week 18 matchup against Pittsburgh is still completely feasible.

Jackson, who was drafted by the Ravens in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft, wasted little time proving himself to be an elite NFL quarterback thanks to his impressive arm talent and game-changing athleticism with his legs.

Although Jackson is a key contributor for the Ravens, a bitter rival of Pittsburgh, we at Steelers Wire wish him a speedy recovery in this significant setback.
