When will Ravens let Lamar Jackson really play quarterback?

OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Since the day the Baltimore Ravens drafted Lamar Jackson, team officials have made it clear what position the Heisman Trophy winner plays:

  • "He's not a running back," coach John Harbaugh said. "He's a quarterback."

  • "Lamar is a quarterback," quarterbacks coach James Urban said. "He is a quarterback."

  • "[He’s] a talented, talented guy -- but he's a quarterback," offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg said. "Done."

  • So, nine games into the season, why haven't the Ravens allowed Jackson to really play quarterback?

    When it has come to meaningful playing time, Jackson has basically run the Wildcat.
