When asked if he would be out on the field on Sunday for the game that will determine whether or not the Ravens make the playoffs, Jackson provided a definitive answer.

"Yeah, 100%," Jackson said. "I'll be out there."

Jackson missed Baltimore's Week 18 win over the Green Bay Packers due to a back contusion. There was some concern that the injury would keep him sidelined for the critical contest against Pittsburgh too, but Jackson made it clear that won't be the case.

"I never quit on my team," Jackson said.
