Lamar Jackson won the NFL regular season MVP Award in 2019, and he became only the second player ever to win the award unanimously. Jackson won the honor thanks to his incredible performances as QB1 for the Baltimore Ravens, in a year in which he led the team to a league-best 14-2 record. Thus, Jackson took the Ravens to their first postseason in a couple of years and genuinely announcing his name on the grandest of stages.
Jackson had incredible individual numbers in his 2019 MVP season, putting up a stat line of 265 passes, 3,127 passing yards, 36 touchdowns, and six interceptions. He also added 1,206 rushing yards and seven rushing touchdowns for good measure. Jackson almost singlehandedly willed his team to the playoffs in one of the best individual seasons in modern NFL history.
Jackson amassed all 50 votes from a nationwide media panel that regularly covers the league. Baltimore's All-Pro set an NFL single-season rushing record for quarterbacks (1,206) and led an offense that put together more yards on the ground (3,296) than others in a 16-game season.
Will Lamar Jackson ever win a second NFL MVP Award?
It's hard to say, as the NFL keeps getting better quarterbacks every season, and some are in the best franchises to compete for honors over the next decade. Of course, no QB in the league at the moment can rush like Jackson, but it remains to be seen whether he can still rush efficiently following his numerous injury setbacks.
However, if Lamar Jackson can join an NFL team with the right mindset, and one that can give him stellar offensive weapons, he certainly stands a chance. Moreover, Jackson was the frontrunner for the regular season award earlier in the 2022 NFL season until he got hurt. Remember, he led the league in passer rating, and TD passes.
One thing is for sure: Lamar Jackson will not win a second NFL MVP Award in Baltimore, as the Ravens' icon has demanded a trade. This trade will see Jackson play for another franchise in his illustrious career. Honestly, he deserves every bit of the opportunity to thrive.
Lamar Jackson, with his cannon arm and mobility is easily one of the league's most loved and respected QBs. It is a shame that things did not work out with the Ravens, as both parties started their relationship on the sweetest of notes.
But in the meantime, let's closely observe where Jackson ends at the end of the day. Jackson has a career stat line of 12,209 passing yards, 101 touchdowns, and 38 interceptions. He also has a solid rushing stat line of 4,437 rushing yards and 24 rushing touchdowns in 70 games.
