The Baltimore Ravens and their fans are holding their breath after quarterback Lamar Jackson exited the Week 4 shellacking at the hands of the Kansas City Chiefs with a hamstring injury.
The injury occurred late in the third quarter when the Ravens were trailing 30-13. The Ravens superstar was clearly frustrated on the sideline and never returned to the game, with backup Cooper Rush finishing things up.
Hamstring injuries can be tricky, especially for a quarterback who uses his legs as much as Jackson does. That leaves his status for Week 5 up in the air.

Lamar Jackson injury updates
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported on Monday morning that Jackson is set to undergo tests to determine the severity of the injury.
Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio reported on Sunday night that Jackson suffered a hamstring strain and his source said Jackson's injury "felt like a grab."
Depending on the severity of the strain, Jackson could miss anywhere from a few days of practice, to multiple months of games in the worst-case scenario.
Ravens head coach John Harbaugh did note that none of the plethora of injuries the team suffered on Sunday afternoon were season-ending, so we know Jackson isn't going to have something that significant.
"There's nothing that looks like it's season-ending by any stretch for anybody," Harbaugh said after the game.
"I really don't have the answer to that right now," Harbaugh said when asked specifically about Jackson.
The Ravens can ill-afford to lose their superstar quarterback for any length of time.
Baltimore is sitting with a 1-3 mark and has games against the Houston Texans and Los Angeles Rams. Granted, neither one of those contests are that daunting, but everything looks extremely difficult for Jackson and Co. right now.
