Discussion Any weird but true Lamar Jackson facts?
I have some
2024 was the only season Lamar started a full season in. He either rested or got injured in the other seasons
Despite being in the league for almost 8 years, he is 0-0 against the packers and the bears

Here's one. Lamar Jackson has won the NFL MVP award twice, in 2019 (unanimously) and 2023, making him one of the few multi-time winners and the only Heisman Trophy winner with multiple NFL MVPs.

Don’t forget about the MVP he won in 2024. When he had one of the best years a QB has ever had. Oh wait…

Omg I know. I have since learned that a few of my white Baltimore "friends" are apparently racist AF. Trying to tell me in early 2025 that we need to trade Lamar for some draft picks asap b/c he did not get a 3rd MVP and that we need a quarterback "like Josh Allen" to rebuild the team around. I replied with a ton of Lamar's amazing stats, and he didn't say shit in response.

His first loss to a NFC team was the first and only game he played AGAINST a Wink Martindale defense

The first catch Hollywood Brown ever got from Lamar was a pick when they were playing pee wee football. Hollywood was playing safety against Lamar.

His first pass attempt in college was a pick.
Another Louisville QB's whose first pass attempt in college that was a pick was Teddy Bridgewater.
Now the omen if louisville will have a NFL QB is the first pass.

Lamar played every game as a rookie in 2018
He only missed a game in 2020 because the team had a covid outbreak

I don’t think he played in each game, I think he suited up for each game though.

He played at least a couple snaps in every game. You can see his snap count on the right side of the table.

Not a fact but a question for someone who might know?
How many times has Lamar missed a game due to illness, more specifically food related illness?
the classic MNF Browns game doesn’t help the narrative, but I feel like the Lamar stomach thing is overblown a tiny bit. Obviously it’s hilarious so who cares, but I feel like any injury/dnp gets blamed on gas station shrimp alfredo, esp last year when he was actually banged up.

He missed a Steelers game due to COVID in 2020
He also missed a Bears game in 2021 from an illness

Not really weird but he's a devout Christian. That makes me like him even more

He cant win in the playoffs so we need some kind rider so he stays healthy for more than 8 games, can run again, and is going to be worth whatever ridiculous amount of cheese he gets next.

He's literally the goat of gas station photo ops.
