Lamar Jackson has hit back at claims that he sat out of games last season on social media.
The superstar quarterback did not play for the Ravens in their last five games of the season after struggling with a knee injury, said to be a grade two PCL strain. And it came in interesting circumstances, with the Ravens head coach John Harbaugh having spoken as if they had expected Jackson to return weeks before he remained sidelined, with the player himself essentially ruling himself out after he said that he does not feel comfortable on his knee.
Harbaugh declared Jackson as 'week-to-week' at the beginning of December, but Jackson was not even able to return for the Ravens' playoff loss to division rival Cincinnati Bengals - and he did not even travel with the team - a rare situation for a starting quarterback to not even be on the sidelines.
