What’s the next step for Lamar Jackson after a unanimous NFL MVP season?
This year, there needs to be two areas of focus for Jackson: more efficient downfield passing and more involvement of the wide receivers. Last season, Jackson ranked 30th in completing 37.7% of his deep throws (passes that traveled at least 10 yards in the air) outside the numbers. He also relied less on his wide receivers (104 completions) than any other quarterback in the league, preferring to target his tight ends. Ravens coaches have talked this offseason about wanting Jackson to exploit defenses by throwing to different parts of the field.
