Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (thumb) is out six to 10 weeks after surgery to repair a broken and dislocated thumb, according to a statement released by head coach Jesse Minter.

Why it Matters: The earliest part of that window is Week 16, which puts most leagues in the fantasy playoffs. If you have the space or are holding out hope for that return, you can stash him. The team has moved on with Jacoby Brissett under center. He threw for 1.717 yards, 10 TDs and seven INTs in eight games with Arizona. He'll be a matchup play the rest of the way. Use him against the Los Angeles Chargers if you're covering a bye this week.
