The Baltimore Ravens are prepping their offense so Lamar Jackson can make some noise this fall.
These preparations don't automatically entail Joe Flacco's demise as the franchise's franchise quarterback, but the Ravens will find ways to get the rookie involved. One sentiment from last week's minicamp should strike fear in all future Baltimore opponents.
When asked what stood out during the year's first practice, one Ravens staffer told MMQB's Albert Breer, "Lamar's speed. Wow."
Quarterback succession plays are often messy. Ben Roethlisberger's recent comments and Joe Flacco's usual stoicism highlighted the conundrum organizations face: trying to prepare for the future without upsetting the team's current starting quarterback.
