The injury occurred in the final minute of the game’s first half. Jackson was covering Titans receiver Treylon Burks and tackled him low after a completed pass.

Lamar Jackson won the Heisman Trophy in 2016. Tua Tagovailoa finished second in the 2018 Heisman voting, and won a National Championship the year before. Why bring up these college memories now? Because the Miami at Baltimore clash on Sunday looked like one of those college pinball games, not an NFL matchup. First team to 40 gets the win. Defense is frowned upon. Improbably, it was the visiting Dolphins who stole the decision in Week 2, scoring four touchdowns in the final quarter and Source link

Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens will head into the final season of his rookie contract without a contract extension, an impasse that amounts to one of the biggest gambles in NFL history by both a franchise and an NFL player. The two sides failed to reach terms on a new deal by Friday, missing a deadline that Jackson set earlier this week. It means the Ravens’ franchise quarterback will now play through the fifth-year option on his rookie deal, earning just over $23 million for the 2022… Source link

We’re going to be good for the season.” Jackson said he… Source link

Former Raiders and MLB star Bo Jackson revealed this week that he had donated to help cover funeral costs for the victims of the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, earlier this year. Jackson, who doesn’t have a real connection to the city other than having driven through it in the past while on hunting trips, said he just felt compelled to help after 19 students and two teachers were killed in May. “I don’t know if it’s because I’m getting old. It’s just not… Source link

Last we heard from Lamar Jackson, he was keeping his contract negotiations with the Baltimore Ravens “private” and drama-free. He told reporters he expected to finish his career in Baltimore and wouldn’t take into consideration the ridiculous $230 million contract the Cleveland Browns handed Deshaun Watson despite numerous sexual assault allegations. That was over a month ago, though, and no new information has surfaced since. But some clues on social media could signal frustrations from… Source link
