When Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson throws a touchdown pass this season, there’s a chance it will come on a route that he suggested. One of the biggest changes in the Ravens’ first season under new offensive coordinator Todd Monken is more freedom and input for Jackson. In addition to giving Jackson the leeway to audible, Baltimore is using plays that Jackson has sent to the coaching staff.
"I was just on social media, and I saw a couple of routes, and I sent it to [quarterbacks] Coach Tee [Martin] and he was like, ‘I’m going to relay the message to Coach [Todd] Monken,’ Jackson said after Tuesday’s joint practice with the Washington Commanders. “Coach Monken liked the play, so he put it in practice. We didn’t show it today, but I feel like it will be good for us.”
I agree with these points. But now we can all blame Lamar for the plays that go wrong! Real-life Twitch plays NFL.
