Meanwhile, the Ravens' kept their playoff hopes alive the night before. Baltimore ran roughshod over the Packers in Green Bay , winning 41-24 in a must-win game. Derrick Henry rushed for an eye-popping 216 yards on 36 carries, finding the end zone on four occasions.

He did so without his starting quarterback under center.
Jackson missed Week 17 after sustaining a back injury in a loss to the New England Patriots the week prior. In his absence, Tyler Huntley put forth a solid effort against the Packers.
He completed 80 percent of his passes, going 16-for-20 for 107 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed for 60 yards on eight carries in the blowout win. But Jackson's return to practice appears to put him firmly in position to earn the start Sunday night.
