Lamar Jackson has won an MVP award in two of his first seven seasons and enters the 2025 slate looking to make a deep playoff run. Baltimore is a Super Bowl favorite and faces huge expectations after a divisional round loss ot the Buffalo Bills last January.
On the first day of Ravens training camp practice, the star quarterback was less focused on the looming slate of games and more focused on getting better each day. Asked about his record-setting 2024 season, Jackson stated he’s “just getting started” at the ripe age of 28.
Jackson became the first quarterback in NFL history to post a 4,000-900 season, throwing for 41 touchdowns and almost 4,200 yards while also rushing for 915 yards and four scores.

Jackson had a career low four interceptions in a season where he was at times the best passer in the NFL. The star quarterback has the NFL’s most physical running back, a dynamic duo at tight end and a trio of wide receivers bolstered by the addition of DeAndre Hopkins. An ever-improving defense added Jaire Alexander on the final day of minicamp, along with two versatile studs with their first two draft picks.
Still, the pressure will continue to mount for Jackson, who’s just 3-5 in playoff games, with just 13 touchdowns (10 passing, three rushing) and 11 turnovers in those eight games.
