The Baltimore Ravens looked primed for a disappointing and devastating loss as the Cleveland Browns marched down the field to score another touchdown and take back the lead with only minutes remaining. Quarterback Lamar Jackson wasn’t on the sideline, instead, getting treatment in the locker room for cramps as Trace McSorley was steering the ship.
On third-and-two, McSorley slipped, seeing his left leg bend under him awkwardly as he went to the turf clutching at his knee. Hope was fading fast as it looked like the collapse was imminent but Jackson ran out of the locker room and onto the field for fourth-and-five, launching the ball to wide receiver Marquise Brown, who took it the rest of the way for a 44-yard touchdown.
These aren’t the words of a fan-fic or a movie, but of real life and one of the craziest finishes to a football game ever. Check out the amazing moment — Jackson’s return to the field and his game-winning touchdown throw to Brown — and relive the celebrating all over again.

Jackson’s touchdown pass to Brown was capped with a successful two-point conversion run by running back J.K. Dobbins to take the lead for the final time. A safety after time expired and the Browns were trying to make a miracle happen only extended things, but it was Jackson’s heroics that truly won the game.
