Ravens Lamar Jackson: sees heavy play time in his debut

Jackson completed one of four passes for 24 yards on Sunday against the Bills and added seven runs for 39 yards.

The Ravens turned to Jackson in the third quarter after a 40-0 lead, but he also played five games in the first half with Joe Flacco, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. "We wanted to quickly establish him as a threat, not a possible threat, we wanted him to tour and generate games for us," coach John Harbaugh said after the match. Jackson's main task after taking over in the third quarter was to help race in an explosion, but his shots in the first half suggest he will be involved in the offensive to some extent. The Ravens have a quick turnaround before returning to action Thursday against the Bengals. Look for Jackson on the field at two quarterfinals on the occasion of the second week.
