Lamar Jackson Dazzles In Second Preseason Outing
5 years agoBaltimore Ravens Lamar Jackson went 6-for-10 for 58 yards in Baltimore's Week 2 preseason game against Green Bay. In his second drive, Jackson rushed for an 18-yard touchdown that had social media in a frenzy. The play was brought back because of a penalty, but media and fantasy owners were thrilled to see Jackson side step and hurdle his way into the end zone at a pace that didn't even look like full speed. The Ravens have been giving out mixed signals on how much he'll be carrying the ball, but head coach John Harbaugh said to "take the over" regarding Jackson topping Panthers quarterback Cam Newton's career-high 139 carries in a season. Jackson is currently being drafted early in the 11th round. With battles for roles at tight end and wide receiver, it might take a few weeks for Jackson to get comfortable airing out the ball. He serves as a high-ceiling option in best ball drafts, with potential to rack up many points on the ground.
