Lamar Jackson needs surgery for thumb injury and could miss rest of season, Ravens coach says

Lamar Jackson needs surgery for a thumb injury he suffered on Baltimore’s first offensive snap against Buffalo on Sunday, and the injury could be season-ending

NOVEMBER 1 • Associated Press

Full practice Thursday Oliver (knee) was a full participant at the Bills' practice Thursday.

Impact Oliver made his return to practice Wednesday after missing the team's two most recent contests with a knee injury, but he now appears to be good to go for Week 8. The defensive lineman has recorded nine total tackles (three solo), including 0.5 sacks, while also recovering a fumble over three contests so far during the 2026 campaign.

Makes return to practice Oliver (knee) returned to practice on a limited basis Wednesday, Chris Brown of the Bills Radio Network reports.

Impact Oliver missed both games of the team's west coast road trip prior to the Week 7 bye, and the Bills certainly felt it by giving up 64 points over those two games. His presence, should he be able to return for Week 8, would go a long way in trying to slow down a Ravens offense that expects to get Lamar Jackson back this week.

Draws questionable tag for Week 6 Oliver (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Las Vegas, Sam Warren of The Athletic reports.

Impact Oliver opened the week with consecutive DNPs before logging a limited practice Friday, which was enough for the veteran defensive lineman to be tagged as questionable. If Oliver is ruled out for a third-straight game, then Greg Gaines and DeWayne Carter would once again step into larger roles on the Bills' defensive line.

Questionable against Chargers Oliver (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Impact Oliver injured his hip during warmups ahead of the Week 2 win over the Lions. He didn't practice Wednesday. However, the veteran practiced in a limited capacity Thursday and Friday, so despite the questionable designation, it appears he at least has a shot to play. If Oliver can't suit up versus Los Angeles, DeWayne Carter should be in line for more work once again.

SEPTEMBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Limited at practice Thursday Oliver (hip) was limited during Thursday's practice.

Impact Oliver suffered a hip injury during warmups ahead of the 41-31 win over Detroit in Week 2. The veteran didn't practice Wednesday. However, since he was back in a limited capacity Thursday, it appears he's trending favorably toward returning for the Week 3 meeting with the Chargers. If Oliver ends up missing a second consecutive game, DeWayne Carter may continue to see more snaps.
