The Ravens hosted their 2018 rookie minicamp over the weekend, and all eyes were on Lamar Jackson.
Head Coach John Harbaugh raved about Lamar’s accuracy and said he’s ready to play at the NFL’s speed:
He’s picked it up very quickly…He’s very smart. He studies. Very sharp, has a nice presence on the field. I think we all feel like he handled himself very well out there.
However, there is one Raven that seems like he’s afraid of a little competition.
This is Mr. Super Bowl MVP Joe Flacco.
Flacco has declined all media requests since the Ravens traded up into the First Round to draft Lamar Jackson with their No. 32 pick.
Yahoo Sports asked Lamar Jackson, straight-up, “have you spoken to Joe Flacco?”
Lamar said no.
Flacco seems to be operating under the “Joe Flacco’s business is being the Ravens’ starting quarterback” standard.
For what it’s worth, Lamar also said that Robert Griffen III has not made any attempts to speak to him either.
