Are the Baltimore Ravens hurting Lamar Jackson long-term with short-term fix?

If there’s anyone throughout the NFL’s 100-year history who knows what it’s like to be in the shoes of Lamar Jackson, it’s Michael Vick.

The former Falcons and Eagles quarterback set the NFL on fire back in the early to mid-2000s with his ability to make electric plays with his legs, unlike any quarterback before him, while also being able to throw the ball at a high level.

Since his freshman season at Louisville, Jackson has heard the comparisons of his game to Vick. That has only been amplified over the years as Jackson led his program to new heights while winning the Heisman Trophy in 2016, and cementing himself as one of the most electrifying players in college football history.
