Ravens RB Lamar Jackson Gets Reps at QB against Miami
When Lamar Jackson fills out an employment application, he always voluntarily self-identifies as a QB.
It now might be time for the rest of the planet to acknowledge it.
The second-year Batlimore Raven went completely nuts in South Florida against the Dolphins on Sunday, but it was the manner in which he did so that raised eyebrows.
Jackson used his previously dormant right arm.
Sure, everyone's on board now, but it took an absurd performance in a 59-10 bloodletting to convince the masses.
Now, you may have noticed the abundance of pocket time and wide-open WR's on many of those throws, but dude still made the plays.
It's likely that all stats accumulated against the wretched Dolphins this season will include an asterisk, anyway.
Despite the recreation league competition, Jackson was feeling pretty saucy afterwards.

Not bad for a Running Back
At this point, it seems likely that Lamar will see some more time as a slinger next week at home against the Cardinals.
