Lamar Jackson out for second straight day due to illness

Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is out for a second straight day of training camp.

Jackson was sent home with an illness before Sunday’s opening practice, and he remains absent on MondayJonas Shaffer from The Baltimore Banner reports.

Ravens coach John Harbaugh said Jackson’s return timetable was unclear after the reigning NFL MVP fell ill Saturday. Harbaugh said Jackson would return “when he’s feeling better, when he’s not sick anymore.”

Backup Josh Johnson takes Jackson’s first-team reps, with rookies Devin Leary and Emory Jones as the other quarterbacks on the roster.

“It’s really good to have Josh,” receiver Rashod Bateman said, via Shaffer, after Sunday’s practice. “He’s an old hand here, so he’s a good leader for us. He teaches us a lot about football, and he’s definitely leading us in the right direction. So it’s good to have him on the field.”
