Lamar Jackson is just a superstar.
Until the Baltimore Ravens achieve playoff success (read: winning a Super Bowl), there will be naysayers. But at this point, it’s pretty ridiculous to even entertain these conversations. Jackson is special.
In the second year of a five-year, $260 million contract, Jackson is within legitimate reach of incredible NFL history. No one has ever totaled 4,000 passing yards and 1,000 rushing yards in a single campaign, but Jackson, with 3,580 and 743 respectively and three games remaining, could do it.
