Lamar Jackson catches pass thrown by himself for 13-yard gain

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson completed one of the most unusual plays of his career to achieve his first reception in the NFL. In a playoff game against the Kansas City Chiefs, Jackson threw a pass that was deflected at the line of scrimmage by safety Justin Reid. The ball flew high and Jackson managed to catch his own pass, running for a 13-yard gain and a first down. The Ravens, seeded No. 1 in the American Conference, went on to face the Chiefs in an intense game with a ticket to Super Bowl LVIII on the line. Despite the Chiefs being defending champions, Jackson and the Ravens dominated the regular season. Jackson is also expected to be honored as Most Valuable Player in the days leading up to the Super Bowl. This unusual play adds to Jackson’s young and brilliant career in the NFL, showcasing his talents as a quarterback.
