The Ravens’ quarterback felt his teammate ODJ, whom Ravens signed up for $15 million for a year, is a household name. ODJ has over 17 million followers on social media, the highest among NFL players. Jackson further went on to share his experience with the new offensive line. He also acknowledged the presence of new addition Zay Flowers. Lamar’s dedication is evident in his smooth transition to the new scheme. But how will the new combination affect Ravens and Jackson?

Ravens ready with the new offensive line for 2023

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is undergoing significant changes in his playing style and the team’s offensive approach under new offensive coordinator Monken. Jackson will focus less on running and more on passing, acknowledging that his legs alone can’t carry him. Monken has given Jackson more control at the line of scrimmage, allowing audibles and no-huddle plays. The Ravens’ receiving corps has been strengthened with additions like Odell Beckham Jr. and Nelson Agholor, providing more downfield targets for Jackson. These changes aim to enhance the passing game and diversify the offense for the upcoming season.

Jackson aims to reduce his run-pass ratio to avoid unnecessary hits and potential injuries. Having more control at the line of scrimmage and a stronger supporting cast of receivers, like rookie Zay Flowers and Odell Beckham Jr., may help Jackson improve his passing game and compete better in crucial AFC matchups. Baltimore Ravens start their campaign against Super Bowl LVII runners-up Philadelphia Eagles on August 13th.
