There’s been a lot of talk over the course of the offseason on whether or not Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson would be able to take the next step as a passer. Jackson has made great strides in training camp by making throws in tight windows and spreading the ball to his receivers. But a game is a different atmosphere.
On his first throw of the night against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Jackson showed a dose of what he was been working on. He connected on a 30-yard pass, right on the money to Ravens wide receiver Chris Moore.
While it’s just one throw, it’s the type of pass you want to see Jackson make. Allow him to use his legs on rollouts, which will certainly attract the attention of opposing defenses.
If Jackson can continue to make those type of throws, it allows Baltimore’s offense to set up a big play in the future that could allow a receiver to be wide open for a bigger gain.
