The Ravens plan to start Lamar Jackson at quarterback for the third consecutive game, according to a report from NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo.

The report said Joe Flacco has not been medically cleared to play, although his status could change in the coming days.

Other reports say Flacco will need a full week of practice before playing. As long as that holds true, it will confirm Jackson as the starter in Week 13, even if Flacco does practice at some point this week. As we reported Monday, once Flacco does return, the team hasn't ruled out using both QBs.

John Harbaugh said the Ravens could use both Joe Flacco and Lamar Jackson a significant amount in games once Flacco is cleared.

Obviously this wouldn't be an ideal fantasy situation for owners of either QB. Harbaugh went on to say, "We’ll just do what gives us the best chance and try to use all of our players the best way we can. So, everything is on the table." Flacco hasn't officially be cleared yet with his hip injury.

The Ravens have declared Joe Flacco (hip) out for Week 12 and named Lamar Jackson as their starter.

Jackson had a solid first start from a fantasy perspective last week against the Bengals, scoring 15.7 points. It won't get any tougher this week against the Raiders and their bottom-of-the-barrel defense. For the matchup, Jackson is a top-15 option at the position.

John Harbaugh on Joe Flacco (hip) playing next week: “It will be tough.”

Jackson wasn't impressive throwing the ball, throwing for 150 yards and an interception. But, he did run 27 times for 117 yards. Looks like Jackson will get another start in Week 12 against the Raiders.

While the #Ravens have kept their QB plan secret, Baltimore players expect Lamar Jackson to see a majority of snaps Sunday vs. #Bengals ... Highly unlikely Joe Flacco plays, but my understanding is no hip surgery needed. Should be ready in week or two.

The Bengals are just 25th in aFPA to QBs this season, making Jackson a viable streaming option with his dynamic rushing ability. His floor is still a QB2 though in his first meaningful game.

The Ravens have officially listed Joe Flacco (hip) as doubtful.

The conventional wisdom says Lamar Jackson will get the nod, perhaps with Robert Griffin III getting some work also. Until the Ravens actually announce anything, we are working on speculation, though, so keep an ear to the ground this weekend. If Jackson does start, there is QB2 appeal with some upside in the event he busts a long run. Jackson's ability to gain yards on the ground should also give him a higher floor than one might think. His presence would be a boon to Alex Collins, who would likely see more carries and a higher level of efficiency as dual-threat quarterbacks traditionally help running backs. At wide receiver and tight end, all options would see at least some hit to their outlook. As meh as Flacco is, Jackson is still quite raw and wildly inaccurate at times. The likes of John Brown and Michael Crabtree will have bottom basement floor, but, especially with Brown, they are but one big play from Jackson away from having a good week.
