Stewart Haas Racing driver Noah Gragson had a memorable day at the Coca-Cola 600, despite the race being cut short. NASCAR’s longest race of the season often creates a buzz around the country and is graced by the presence of celebrities and stars. Although the arrival of Donald Trump did make headlines in Charlotte, it was the Raven’s QB, Lamar Jackson’s appearance that caught many by surprise.

Noah Gragson has a fanboy moment with Lamar Jackson

The Baltimore Raven’s quarterback himself had a blast as he celebrated the Memorial Day festivities with the army personnel. Jackson was rooting for the Penske star, Ryan Blaney. This was evident from his gray shirt, which had the driver’s name and No. 12 on it. He completed his race-day outfit with camo pants and a gray bucket hat.

The two-time NFL MVP certainly had a lot of fans at the race who were in absolute awe to see their favorite star attending a NASCAR event. Even SHR’s Noah Gragson couldn’t contain his excitement after meeting the NFL star. As soon as he took a selfie with him, he quickly shared the moment via his Instagram account. The caption of the post read, “Lamar!!!! Goat! I run the ball with him every play, double slants on madden. Legend!!”

It was indeed a wholesome moment for the SHR driver, who is currently embroiled in the rumor saga involving his team’s future in NASCAR. Moreover, he didn’t have a good run at the race, as he crashed out with a DNF finish in Stage 2. It was certainly not the result he was hoping for in a situation where he is potentially auditioning to retain or find a new seat in case the rumors regarding SHR’s future come true.

However, it seems like his meeting with the NFL star, Lamar Jackson, saved the day for him, and the fans were excited to see the two stars sharing a moment at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Both Jackson and Gragson are arguably the future superstars of their respective sports. Although Raven’s QB has already cemented his name as one of the best of the current generation, NASCAR fans believe the SHR star only has a similar potential. “Special teams special plays special players ☝️”

Gragson has certainly proven his ability to be a competitive race car driver in NASCAR. His performances this season have even garnered him more support from the fans. Heaping praise upon his favorite NASCAR star, a fan replied, “My fave driver AND my QB in the same pic!! This is GOLD!!! 🔥🔥🔥 #NoahNation #RavensFlock”.

It is indeed rare to see a NASCAR driver go gaga over meeting a fellow star, given their status in the sport. But this crossover was much appreciated by both NASCAR and NFL fans, “Holy shit this is fye😂😂”.

“Two of my favorites. This is awesome!!”

However, one particular Gragson fan felt betrayed to see Jackson supporting the defending Cup Series champion, Ryan Blaney. In his response to the post shared on Instagram, the fan wrote, “The Ryan Blaney shirt 😭”.

The SHR driver will be back in action this weekend at the World Wide Technology Raceway, trying to make a comeback from his unfortunate end in the Coca-Cola 600 race.
