Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson put on a dazzling display of agility in the first half of the team’s Super Wild Card contest against the Tennessee Titans.
The 2019 NFL MVP managed to escape the pocket on a 2nd down play, racing past the entire Titans’ secondary en route to a 48-yard score that tied the game at 10-10.
Jackson capped off his scoring play by extending his left arm with the football tucked inside it, just managing to escape the outstretched arms of two Titans defenders.
