Patriots Boss Bill Belichick Further Hints of Wanting Lamar Jackson in New England Despite Losing Game and His Own Quarterback Mac Jones to Lengthy Injury

The losing streak continues for Bill Belichick and his once invincible New England Patriots. While the Patriots had no significant wins since the departure of Tom Brady, many still believe that Belichick is not a finished product yet. Nevertheless, Belichick heaped praise on the Ravens’ star quarterback Lamar Jackson mentioning his improvement over time in the NFL.

Jackson put up a great show in the Sunday game. He accumulated 218 passing yards along with four touchdowns. He was at the top in the rushing game too, rushing 107 yards with 11 carries. Belichick’s compliment for him can be a hint at a future move from the Patriots for the young QB who is also having contract issues.

In addition to that, the Patriots quarterback, 24-year-old Mac Jones, suffered a severe ankle injury during the match. According to early reports, the second-year QB could be spending a long time on the sidelines. With the Patriots down 1-2 in the AFC North, they might direly need a QB.

Lamar Jackson rumors gaining momentum with a complicated contract situation

Recently, Lamar Jackson rejected a deal worth $290 million over 6 years from the Ravens. One part of the NFL experts might dismiss Jackson’s action, but there is a significant part who approves his rejection. Interestingly, the Patriots HC belongs to the latter section.

“Without a doubt,” said Belichick at a recent media conference. “It’s the type of the player, the MVP type of candidate. I think he’s more than answered them. But, we’ll see what his contract is, that will answer them.”

Belichick appeared in a podcast named The Greg Hill Show and talked about how Jackson excelled in his movements through time. “Well, very good offense. He is a dynamic player. He’s got a lot of speed and he can turn short plays into long ones, along with his speed. Well, he’s athletic and has a strong arm.” Belichick said when asked how difficult it is to defend a guy like Lamar Jackson. “All that….the entire offense is well balanced and the quarterbacks have, you know… that extra guy that normally you don’t have to account for, but you certainly have to account for him and that they did a good job of finding ways to strengthen his class and then it always comes down to tackling with him too. So that’s leverage and tackling are also a big part of that.”

Whether or not Lamar Jackson ends up with the Patriots, these remarks from the all-time best coach will certainly amp up Jackson’s confidence. The 25-year QB will be hungry for more after such an outstanding game week. Will he be able to duplicate his energetic performance in GW 4? Only time will tell!
