The highly anticipated rematch between the Baltimore Ravens and the Cincinnati Bengals is just around the corner, with both teams looking to make a statement on Thanksgiving night. However, doubts surround the readiness of injured stars Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow. Burrow is set to return to the field after a turf toe injury, but rust may be a factor after missing several games. Meanwhile, Jackson came back from a hamstring injury last month, but has since dealt with knee, ankle, and toe issues, affecting his explosiveness. Despite the concerns, both teams are eager to face each other, with the Ravens riding a five-game winning streak and the Bengals seeking to make a last-ditch playoff push. Cincinnati's Ja'Marr Chase returns from a one-game suspension, but teammate Tee Higgins remains in concussion protocol, potentially opening the door for Mitchell Tinsley to start. The Ravens' defense has been impressive, holding their last six opponents under 20 points, but they face a tough test against Burrow and Chase, who form one of the league's top passing attacks. The Bengals have also improved their running game, averaging 118.8 yards per game over their last five matches. The stakes are high, with the Bengals needing to win to stay in the playoff hunt, and the Ravens looking to continue their winning streak. With several key players on the mend, it remains to be seen if Burrow and Jackson will be able to deliver on Thanksgiving night.
