Can Lamar Jackson maintain his MVP momentum, or will Trey Hendrickson derail his path to glory?

Week 9 analysis is here, and Tom Brady has highlighted three standout NFL players! This week in his “3 Stars of the Week,” Brady has taken top-three names – Saquon Barkley, Trey Hendrickson, and Lamar Jackson. Jackson, the Ravens’ quarterback and a top MVP candidate, received immense praise from Brady. However, it comes with a warning that Jackson needs to be mindful about.

Taking to their Twitter handle, FOX Sports shared a video of Brady, as he is evocative of his opinion of the top 3 stars of Week 9! Capturing the essence of their performances and playoff potential in the high-stakes games, Brady called Jackson’s performance “flawless,” adding, “Lamar is making a case for that second straight MVP.”

He continues to add, “Let’s see if he can keep it rolling against the Bengals on Thursday.” Brady took to highlight Jackson’s performance against the phenomenally strong Broncos defense. And, with 20 touchdowns and only two interceptions for the season, he is indeed putting forth a strong MVP case.

But,  Brady also added a cautionary note for Jackson. And, none other than defensive end Trey Hendrickson of the Bengals. He also made Brady’s list is posing a threat to Jackson’s bid for MVP. Brady remarked, “Lamar [Jackson], watch out, man. You better know where No. 91 is lined up on every snap.”

Brady adds Bengals’ Trey Hendrickson had a “career day” in Cincinnati’s 41-24 triumph over the Raiders. Hendrickson went on to record four sacks, seven QB hits, a forced fumble, and also a pass deflection, as now he is topping the league for sacks.

And, Brady also has firsthand experience against Hendrickson. He added, “He sacked me a few times, and I didn’t like it at all.” And, with this word of caution, Jackson needs to be mindful about his MVP odds.
