In a stunning display of talent, Lamar Jackson led the Baltimore Ravens to a 24-16 victory over the Tennessee Titans at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Jackson threw a touchdown pass and Justin Tucker added six field goals to secure the win.
Jackson’s international debut was nothing short of impressive, but it was Tucker who stole the show with his perfect 6-for-6 performance, including a 41-yarder. Jackson completed 21 of 30 passes for 223 yards and also contributed 62 rushing yards.
The Ravens (4-2) had several explosive plays on offense and even had a 70-yard punt return by Devin Duvernay. However, they struggled to convert these opportunities into touchdowns throughout the game.
Rookie receiver Zay Flowers made his mark by scoring his first NFL touchdown on a 10-yard pass from Jackson, extending their lead to 15-3.

The Titans (2-4) started off slow, appearing sluggish against an opponent that arrived in London earlier. Quarterback Ryan Tannehill left the game in the third quarter due to injury and was replaced by Malik Willis. Tannehill finished with 8 completions on 16 attempts for 76 yards.
The Ravens closed the first half with Tucker’s 29-yard field goal after the Titans’ Kyle Philips fumbled a catch and Baltimore recovered with one second remaining.

The Titans came alive in the second half, with Derrick Henry’s 15-yard touchdown run closing the gap to 18-13 in the third quarter. Sean Murphy-Bunting intercepted one of Jackson’s passes in Baltimore territory, setting up the opportunity for the Titans to score.
Before that, Henry had a spectacular 63-yard run on a direct snap, his longest run of the season, but the Titans settled for a field goal. Henry finished the game with 97 rushing yards on 12 carries.
Tennessee’s momentum was halted when Geno Stone intercepted a deep ball from Tannehill intended for Chig Okonkwo late in the third quarter.

Despite their defensive efforts, the Ravens were unable to convert on a crucial red zone play, with Jackson being stopped at the 2-yard line on third down. Tucker’s fifth field goal extended their lead to 21-13, and he added a sixth field goal in the fourth quarter to complete an 11-play, 71-yard drive.
Nick Folk’s third field goal of the game made it a one-score game, but his onside kick attempt was recovered by the Ravens.
UNFINISHED BUSINESS
The Ravens had a strong offensive performance in the first half, scoring points on five out of their six possessions. However, most of these scores came in the form of field goals. In the second half, the Ravens struggled with two three-and-outs and allowed their first rushing touchdown of the season after Jackson’s interception.
FOLK TALE
Nick Folk matched the NFL record for the most consecutive field goals under 40 yards, tying Justin Tucker’s record of 70. Folk’s streak began six years ago, while Tucker held the record from 2016 to 2020. Folk’s 38-yard field goal late in the game brought the score to 24-16.
MOMENT OF SILENCE
A moment of silence before kickoff was disrupted by a couple of “free Palestine” shouts. The stadium announcer acknowledged the recent terror attack in Israel and expressed condolences, asking for a moment of silence to honor the lives lost.
INJURIES
Ravens: DE Brent Urban (neck) left the game and did not return. CB Kevon Seymour (ankle) was also ruled out. LB Malik Harrison was being evaluated for a possible concussion.
