Lamar Jackson officially announced as the starting quarterback against Tampa Bay; Flacco to back him up

What was once an incredibly murky quarterback situation with as many as three guys in the mix to start at once, the Baltimore Ravens have officially named a starter for this weekend against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers:

To open his Wednesday media availability, John Harbaugh finally committed to rookie Lamar Jackson as his unquestioned starter heading into a game for the first time since Joe Flacco’s injury situation cropped up several weeks ago. He also confirmed that the veteran would be number two on the depth chart behind Jackson, taking over for Robert Griffin III who saw some limited action behind Lamar in his time as the backup.
