Lamar Jackson Fantasy

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson ended last year as one of the league's most dominant players. He finished with 3,127 passing yards and 36 touchdowns (six interceptions) while maintaining an exceptional 66.1 completion percentage. He also added 1,206 yards and seven additional scores on the ground and finished second with 867 rushing yards before contact. Though it is reasonable to think that the 23-year-old will regress this season, analyst Marcellus Wiley believes the opposite. While conversing on Fox Sports "Speak for Yourself," the former defensive end stated that he feels the young signal-caller will be "greater than great" in 2020, which is a scary declaration considering his statistical output through 15 games last season. He also indicated that a second consecutive MVP award is on the horizon. Whether fantasy managers agree or not, they should expect Jackson to be the first or second quarterback off the draft boards for the upcoming campaign.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is coming off a successful campaign in 2019, which included being named the league's MVP. Though the third-year signal-caller doesn't have much to improve upon as a runner, head coach John Harbaugh is looking for Jackson to "push the ball to spots where the defense is not" in 2020. With many opposing defenses likely to stack the box to stop the run, the door could be open for more passing yards from the 23-year-old at the expense of seeing a slight regression in rushing yards. Nonetheless, he is likely to make some noise on the fantasy end this upcoming year, so fantasy managers should expect him to be the first quarterback off the board in most leagues, regardless of format.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is fine after falling over a jet ski in a video posted on social media, according to a source. In the video, Jackson is running with a football on the beach before running into a parked jet ski and falling headfirst into the water. The 23-year-old was the second unanimous NFL MVP in just his second season in the league last year. Jackson was also the first player in NFL history to gain more than 3,000 yards passing and 1,000 yards rushing in a single season. As a result, he'll likely be the first fantasy QB off the board in drafts this fall. Even though Jackson's numbers may take a slide from a season ago, his dual-threat abilities on the field make him extremely tough to stop.
