The Baltimore Ravens will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 11. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding QB Lamar Jackson.
Is Lamar Jackson Playing in Week 11?
Lamar Jackson was listed on Thursday’s injury report as limited due to “rest/knee.” This is likely the same maintenance program Jackson has undergone all season, as he is in no jeopardy of missing Sunday’s game.
We’ll continue to monitor the Ravens’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Lamar Jackson in Week 11?
The front-runner for the NFL MVP was nothing short of special on Thursday night, and his Ravens needed every ounce of it to earn the one-point win over the Bengals. Lamar Jackson is the first QB with three games of four passing scores and 30 rushing yards in a single season since himself in 2019.
Do you still have the weird desire to knock Jackson for the running? Stop it. He’s the first quarterback with multiple passing touchdowns and 280 yards through the air since 2020. He’s bizarro Patrick Mahomes. Mahomes is an elite talent whose team doesn’t need him to light up the scoreboard while Jackson is an elite talent whose team requires video game production.
A goofy late-season schedule makes the long-term evaluation a little weird if Baltimore’s seeding isn’t in major question (Weeks 14-17: bye, Sunday game, Saturday game, Wednesday game), but if there is a player that can overcome a less-than-ideal rest schedule, it’s Jackson in a spot like this.
The Steelers are obviously a great defense, but in 2024, great offense beats great defense. In Jackson’s two most difficult matchups this season:
- Week 1 at Chiefs: 273 pass yards and 122 rushing yards
- Week 9 vs. Broncos: 280 passing yards, 84.2% complete, and three touchdowns
