On Monday night, the Baltimore Ravens took down the Cleveland Browns, but much of the talk surrounding that game was Lamar Jackson leaving the game for an extended period of time.
The star quarterback left the field with cramps before a miraculous comeback late in the fourth quarter, even though social media thinks he was pooping.
“I was real-life cramping, like my hand, my throwing arm cramping, forearm cramping, fingers getting stuck together,” Jackson said. “I was going through it. I was ticked off.”
Jackson said it could be due in part to the fact he had COVID-19.
“Probably,” Jackson told ESPN. “Probably because of the body heat and we’re running in the cold. It was so cold out there. That probably had an effect on that as well. I can’t call it.”
The win over the Browns kept the Ravens in the thick of things in the playoff race.
