▪ The naysayers will point out that Lamar Jackson left this game before halftime with a back injury and didn’t return, giving way to backup Tyler Huntley. And it’s a valid point — who knows how Sunday night’s game would have turned out with the Ravens’ two-time MVP under center?

The Patriots and Jets play Sunday in Week 17 of the 2025 NFL season. Milton Williams, Khyiris Tonga, Mack Hollins, Kayshon Boutte, Harold Landry III, Robert Spillane and Jared Wilson have all been ruled out for the game. DeMario Douglas is listed as questionable to play, while TreVeyon Henderson is expected to suit up.

The Cincinnati Bengals didn’t get Joe Burrow back for the Week 12 game against the New England Patriots, but his return a few days later for the Thanksgiving game against the Baltimore Ravens seemed all but guaranteed. Those Bengals needed to respond with a win over the New England Patriots on Sunday to keep hope alive, though.
