Keaton Mitchell, Zach Wilson, Trevor Lawrence among NFL's injured in Week 15

Dec. 18 (UPI) -- Keaton Mitchell, Zach Wilson and Trevor Lawrence were among the key players injured in Week 15 of the 2023 NFL season.

Players hurt in Sunday's games will be evaluated this week to determine the extent of their injuries and potential timelines to return.

Mitchell sustained a left knee injury early in the fourth quarter of the Baltimore Ravens' win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday in Jacksonville, Fla. Ravens coach John Harbaugh said he expects Mitchell to miss the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign.

"It's going to be a serious injury, a knee injury," Harbaugh said. "It looks like he won't be back for the rest of the season."

Mitchell totaled 88 yards from scrimmage on 11 touches before his exit. The undrafted rookie totaled 489 yards from scrimmage and two scores in eight games this season.

The Ravens will now turn to Gus Edwards and Justice Hill to lead their backfield. Harbaugh said the Ravens plan to elevate veteran running back Melvin Gordon III from their practice squad.

Ravens safety Marcus Williams (groin) and offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley (concussion) were also injured in Week 15. Harbaugh said Williams is day-to-day, while Stanley must clear the concussion protocol.

Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence also was placed in the concussion protocol after the game. He completed 25 of 43 passes for 264 yards and a score in the loss. Backup quarterback C.J. Beathard could be in line to play in Week 16 if Lawrence remains out.

The Ravens (11-3) will battle the San Francisco 49ers (11-3) in Week 16. The Jaguars (8-6) will face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7-7) on Sunday in Tampa, Fla.

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson sustained a concussion in the first half of a loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday in Miami Gardens, Fla. He completed 4 of 11 passes for 26 yards and lost a fumble. He exited in the second quarter and did not return.

Second-string quarterback Trevor Siemian completed 14 of 26 passes for 110 yards, two interceptions and a fumble in relief of Wilson.

Safety Tony Adams exited because of a head injury and defensive linemen Quinton Jefferson and John Franklin-Myers sustained hip injuries in the loss.

The Dolphins (10-4) will host the Dallas Cowboys (10-4) on Sunday in Miami Gardens. The Jets (5-9) will host the Washington Commanders (4-10) in Week 16.

Cowboys guard Zack Martin sustained a thigh injury and did not return during a loss to the Buffalo Bills. He exited in the first quarter. T.J. Bass replaced Martin and could be in line to take more repetitions if the veteran guard misses time.

Martin told reporters that he will get treatment and felt good about his prospects to play against the Dolphins. Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy also said that Martin told him he "will be OK."

The Arizona Cardinals lost wide receiver Marquise Brown to a heel injury during their loss to the 49ers. He did not secure a catch in the loss.

The Cardinals (3-11) will battle the Chicago Bears (5-9) on Sunday in Chicago.
