Lamar Jackson doesn’t think an unwanted record during his Ravens career is a problem.
He doesn’t know why he’s been ill so often since joining the Baltimore Ravens, but Lamar Jackson is willing to put it down to random bad luck. The franchise quarterback isn’t worried he has a chronic problem.
Jackson addressed the issue of his illness record following a recent absence from training camp that prompted medical tests. Speaking to reporters after returning to camp on Monday, July 29, the two-time NFL MVP said, “at Louisville, I never got sick. I never was sick, but it comes and goes,” per ESPN’s Jamison Hensley.
As Hensley noted, “Jackson has missed at least one practice because he was sick in each season since being drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in 2018. He has been sidelined a total of 12 practices with non-COVID-related illnesses, including four in the first week of this year’s training camp.”
