OWINGS MILLS, Md -- When Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson throws a touchdown pass this season, there's a chance it came on a route that he suggested.
One of the biggest changes in the Ravens' first season under new offensive coordinator Todd Monken is more freedom and input for Jackson. In addition to giving Jackson the leeway to audible, Baltimore is now using plays that Jackson has sent to the coaching staff.
"I was just on social media, and I saw a couple of routes, and I sent it to [quarterbacks] Coach Tee [Martin] and he was like, 'I'm going to relay the message to Coach [Todd] Monken,'" Jackson said after Tuesday's joint practice with the Washington Commanders.
