Baltimore Ravens: Lamar Jackson Called Out by Fans After Terribly Insensitive Comment After 28-25 Win Over Cowboys

Published

on

The Baltimore Ravens finally earned their first victory of the 2024 NFL regular season, defeating the Dallas Cowboys 28-25 on Sunday afternoon. Despite a late rally by Dallas, Baltimore’s ground game was too much to overcome. As a team, they rushed for 274 yards and three touchdowns. Derrick Henry had 25 carries for 151 of those yards and two scores.

Lamar Jackson was the other star on offense, rushing for 87 yards and a touchdown. The Ravens quarterback also completed 12 of 15 passes for 182 yards, a touchdown, no interceptions, and a 139.4 passer rating.

It was what Jackson said after the game, though, that was generating a buzz on social media.

Baltimore Ravens Quarterback Lamar Jackson Made an Insensitive Comment in His Postgame Interview

During his postgame interview, Jackson was asked about how badly the Ravens needed to win the game. As mentioned, it was their first win of the season, and they improved to 1-2 on the year.

“We needed it bad. I believe some people was on suicide watch,” Jackson replied.

Whether he was talking about some of the Ravens’ players or their fans is not clear. However, fans on social media were not too thrilled with his choice of words.

NFL Fans React to Baltimore Ravens Quarterback Lamar Jackson Saying People Were on Suicide Watch

While there undoubtedly are people not bothered by Jackson remarks, and some who are upset that others took exception to it, the fact of the matter is that there were many fans that did not appreciate his making light of such a sensitive topic.

Obviously, it remains to be seen if the NFL will levy any fine for the comment.

While many may not see it as a big deal, the rhetoric Jackson chose to use makes light of a very serious issue for many.

Green Bay Packers’ quarterback Jordan Love lost his father, a police officer, to suicide as a result of mental health struggles. He now works closely with families of soldiers and law enforcement who have, unfortunately, had similar experiences.
