Ravens vs. Bills score, live updates: Lamar Jackson ruled out due to thumb injury suffered on Baltimore’s first offensive play; Tyler Huntley at QB
The Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills will face off in Week 8 – a matchup between two former NFL MVPs, Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen, that’s bound to be the highlight of the 1 p.m. ET slate of games. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York, broadcast on CBS.
The Bills are coming off a Week 7 bye with a 5-1 record and a one-game lead in the AFC East. Quarterback Josh Allen continues to play light, and he is currently the consensus favorite to win his second MVP award, having thrown for 1,504 yards, 9 touchdowns and 4 interceptions, adding another 240 yards and 8 touchdowns on the ground.

The Ravens will return star quarterback Lamar Jackson this week after missing three weeks with a sprained ankle as he looks to end a two-game losing streak. The offense desperately needed a spark, scoring just 23 total points in those two losses.

The Buffalo Bills took a 10-0 lead after Tyler Bass made a field goal. Bass’ kick had a crazy trajectory and almost went sideways.
The ball ended up hitting the basket post and ricocheted through the uprights for the score.

The Ravens just got back quarterback Lamar Jackson after a three-game absence. On the first play of Baltimore’s drive, Jackson attempted a pass, but his hand was hit on the follow-up on a defender.
The quarterback immediately went to the sideline and was taken to the locker room.

The Bills appeared to have scored a touchdown earlier in the drive when Khalil Shakir flipped in the end zone on a reception.
He was ruled to have gone out on the 1-yard line.
Josh Allen then made two runs from the goal line, and on second down, on fourth down, he took the ball and jumped, trying to reach it over the line. He got the ball and the Bills took a quick 7-0 lead.

Josh Allen will return a top offensive target to the lineup in Week 8, as wide receiver DJ Moore returns from a shoulder injury that limited him to just four total games this season. He was initially listed as questionable for Week 8 due to his injury.
The Ravens also officially have Lamar Jackson available for Week 8 when he was expected to be active this week. That returns backup Tyler Huntley to the bench, who was 1-2 in three starts in place of Jackson this season.
