Mike Vick on Lamar Jackson: 'I'm in shock'

When Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson put a trio of poor Cincinnati Bengals through the spin cycle two weeks ago, it didn’t take long for a fresh round of Mike Vick comparisons to begin.

And get this: it turns out Jackson’s sizzling 47-yard touchdown run was so similar to Vick’s 46-yard overtime game-winner 17 years ago that even the former star’s friends could barely notice the difference, as Vick says he constantly hears from people noting the similarities between the two.

“Yeah, man, everybody’s saying that — people calling me, texting me, sending me his highlights,” Vick recently told Yahoo Sports with a laugh.
