Ravens wide receivers James Proche and Rashod Bateman are tired of the Lamar Jackson “slander.”
The young wide receivers confronted the media about the perceived lack of respect Jackson has been getting this offseason.
“Like, kind of tired of the slander, that’s really it,” Proche said. “There’s only been one Lamar Jackson ever in this league, and the fact that the media disrespects him the way that they do is, what I said earlier, barbaric. So, there we go.”
Jackson has his detractors who claim he cannot win a Super Bowl as a running quarterback. Jackson also was lambasted recently for skipping this year’s voluntary workouts.
