The Baltimore Ravens’ star quarterback Lamar Jackson has consistently demonstrated his prowess on the field, earning himself a $260 million deal earlier this year. Yet, it’s not just his on-field performance that sets him apart.
Jackson’s recent comments have shed light on his unwavering commitment to the game and his team’s success, emphasizing the importance of priorities and his desire to secure victories.
Lamar Jackson sets his priorities straight
After delivering a spectacular performance against the Tennessee Titans at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, QB Lamar Jackson made his priorities abundantly clear. The Ravens secured a convincing victory, and Jackson played a pivotal role in the triumph. His tweet, “Boy Idgad About your Parlay or fantasies I’m trying to win ‼️,” immediately made waves on social media. In this single sentence, Jackson articulated his focus and determination, setting the tone for his unwavering dedication to the game.

What Jackson’s tweet and performance highlight is his dedication to the team’s success rather than personal accolades. In a world where fantasy football and sports betting have become prominent aspects of the NFL landscape, it’s refreshing to see a player who prioritizes the fundamental essence of the game- winning.

“They got that turnover,” Lamar Jackson said of his interception that led to Henry’s score. “They had momentum. Our job was to stay locked in. … But we have to finish in the end zone. That’s what’s slowing us down. We need to find a way to punch it in.”
“I’m really thankful for Justin, he made all those kicks,” head coach John Harbaugh said. “It’s probably fun for the crowd here to see, but we need to score points. That could have been a much more comfortable game for us.”
The Baltimore Ravens will host the Detroit Lions next Sunday, making for another blockbuster clash. Going into the game with a 4-2 record and a recent international victory, the Ravens will have wind beneath their sails and will look to build on this momentum going forward.
