Maryland Gov. Wes Moore visits Ravens practice, hypes Lamar Jackson

Come January, Lamar Jackson might be able to look back at the video embedded below and say: “wow, look at the Vice President hype up my game!”

Maryland Governor Wes Moore, according to multiple reports, is on the short list of potential candidates to be Kamala Harris’ running mate in November’s election.

We won’t know the result of the Veepstakes for awhile yet, but in the meantime, Moore took some time away from politics to discuss a different sort of cutthroat competition- the National Football League!

Clad in a Lamar Jackson jersey and looking like he might be in contention to make the 53-man roster, Moore extolled the virtues of the reigning NFL MVP while visiting Ravens practice in Owings Mills, MD.

And from the verbiage used, it’s clear that the former combat veteran knows his football.

“It’s impossible to prepare for Lamar Jackson if you’re another team,” Moore said.

“If you’re a team playing the Ravens on Sunday, who are you putting in as the scout quarterback to prepare for Lamar Jackson?

“Who’s fast enough? Who’s accurate enough?

Who’s arm has the same arm strength?

Who has the level of understanding to do draw downs, and how to find open receivers? There is not another player in the league like Lamar Jackson.

“He is just impossible to prepare for

“And that’s why, for every team in the league, I just have two words for you: good luck.”

So there you have it. Your move, Andy Reid and Kansas City. We’ll see how their preparations work out in just 42 days time.
