Lamar Jackson was on the practice field for the Baltimore Ravens on Wednesday after missing two games with a hamstring injury.

Jackson initially did not take the field with Baltimore's other two quarterbacks, but with practice still open to reporters, he came out with his helmet on and did some throwing, also receiving hugs from some teammates.

The Ravens (1-5) have been holding out hope that Jackson's return can help save their season after four straight losses. Now all eyes will be on the two-time MVP to see what progress he makes this week, with the Chicago Bears in town Sunday.

The Ravens had an open date last weekend.

Jackson injured his hamstring in the Ravens' 37-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on September 28. He was replaced by backup Cooper Rush, who started the following two games - both losses.

In four games, Jackson has passed for 869 yards with 10 touchdowns and one interception.
