Lamar Jackson played zero snaps at wide receiver during his time at Louisville, so it’s puzzling to read these reports. According to Peter Schrager from Good Morning Football, teams at the combine have made a request for Lamar Jackson to work out as a wide receiver.
Multiple NFL teams have requested for the dual-threat Louisville quarterback to work out as a wide receiver, in addition to working out as a QB, Good Morning Football’s Peter Schrager reported Friday, per a source informed of the situation.
The narrative created by certain media members has now officially tainted Lamar Jackson’s opportunity at the combine, and now he is not being judged fairly as just a quarterback. Jackson has referred to the idea of playing wide receiver as annoying and has reiterated that he has played the quarterback position his entire life. Jackson is scheduled to work out as a quarterback on March 3rd.
