Lamar Jackson’s first game after returning from injury lasts only one play, as he exits during Baltimore’s opening snap against Buffalo. Both outlets describe the same abrupt ending to his return, framing it as an early and unexpected development in the game.
The two reports closely align on the timing and sequence—Jackson returns, plays only the first down or opening play, and then leaves the field. Yahoo Sports emphasizes the brevity of the return, focusing on how long it lasted and that it ends immediately after the opening snap. The New York Post also stresses the “nightmare” framing, presenting Jackson’s early exit as a new problem that follows the end of the prior injury-related setback.
