Watch: Marquise Brown takes hit, holds on to ball for TD

After the Pittsburgh Steelers were able to go and score a touchdown to make it a 10-7 game, the Baltimore Ravens needed to answer it by scoring a touchdown of their own to give them some breathing room in a crucial rivalry game. And the offense delivered once again.

Lamar Jackson led the Ravens on a 13-play drive that ended in an 11-yard touchdown pass to Marquise Brown. Brown made the leaping grab, but more impressively, he was able to hold on to the ball despite taking a big hit from Steelers cornerback Joe Haden. It’s the third touchdown of the season for the rookie receiver, who has been one of Lamar’s favorite targets since arriving in Baltimore.

 

As impressive as Brown has been with his speed, what really rounds out his game is his reliability and his toughness, two things that were on display with that touchdown reception

Sadly, Brown is now questionable to return to the game with an ankle injury.
