ESPN Slammed For Leaving Lamar Jackson Off Rankings List

Lamar Jackson still can’t get any respect.

With next season right around the corner, ESPN released a list of the top ten quarterbacks in the NFL right now.

And in a surprising move, the Ravens former MVP didn’t make the cut.

The top-10 NFL QB rankings are here 👀

Lamar Jackson…

had his team #1 seed in AFC in early DEC…

despite being the #1 most injured team in history

ranked #1 in the NFL throwing outside the numbers…

& was top-10 in the NFL in rush yds when healthy

and after injury BAL went 0-5

…but he's not a top-10 QB

The NFL thought Lamar Jackson should play WR. He was drafted No. 32

He’s now MVP, All-Pro and 2X Pro Bowler with the fourth most wins among QBs since becoming a starter

So OF COURSE the NFL still says he’s not a top 10 QB

Please never learn the lesson. Keep underestimating him

There's no explanation as to how Lamar Jackson isn't a top ten QB but Dak Prescott is.

why is Deshaun even being ranked, especially at the expense of Lamar Jackson not making the top 10 https://t.co/RDbOCKDCeI

Lamar Jackson has had a little bit of a drop off since his MVP season, but remains one of the most dominant players in the entire NFL.

While Jackson has battled injury the past two seasons, he’s still the best running QB we’ve seen since Michael Vick, and he’s also made strides in the passing game, as well.

At the end of the day, Lamar Jackson has a lot of critics to silence next season, and we’re expecting him to do exactly that.
