Multiple NBA stars lobby for Ravens QB Lamar Jackson to be paid

The Baltimore Ravens suffered a crushing defeat against the Miami Dolphins by the final score of 42-38. Baltimore blew a 21-point fourth quarter lead, being outscored 28-3 during the period in the process. However, that doesn’t take away from how good Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson played throughout the contest.

Jackson completed 21-of-29 passes for 318 yards and three touchdowns through the air, adding another 9 carries for 119 yards and a score on the ground. During the game, multiple NBA stars expressed their awe at Jackson’s electricity, lobbying for the superstar quarterback to be paid.

It’s unknown when or if a deal will get done between Jackson and the Ravens, but both sides have expressed interest in getting something done at some point.
