Lamar Jackson Responds To Why Ravens Didn’t Shake Hands With Titans After Game

Lamar Jackson and the Ravens wanted their respect so they went out and took it as he lead the Ravens to a 20-13 win over the Tennessee Titans in the AFC Wild Card Round.

“It feels good,” Jackson told reporters after the game. “There’s always going to be naysayers. I feel grateful.”

After Sunday’s game, Jackson left without shaking the Titans players’ hands as cameras saw him headed straight for the locker room.

He responded to why he did that:

“Lamar Jackson said he walked off the field at the end of the game and didn’t shake hands with the Titans because of what transpired before the last game in November, when the Titans huddled on the Ravens’ logo. Jackson said that was disrespectful,” ESPN’s Jamison Henley tweeted.

Lamar Jackson: "We didn't see what went on before the game the last time. [Later we saw] They were standing on our logo and getting into it with our coach. That was disrespectful bc we treat all our opponents with respect. … There wasn't any reason for us to shake hands."
