Baltimore Ravens star quarterback Lamar Jackson lost 10 pounds this offseason and reportedly looks noticeably slimmer.
According to The Athletic, Jackson is down to 205 pounds, 25 pounds less than his 2022 weight and 10 pounds less than his 2023 weight.
That is a lot of pounds gone for a quarterback who uses his feet a lot to run out of the pocket and takes punishment when he is tackled.
Footage of Lamar Jackson would surface from OTAs, and you could see the physical toll the weight loss has taken on his body,
NFL fans took to the comments and showed just how worried they were for Lamar Jackson:
Jackson played a significant role in the Ravens being the best team during the 2023 regular season. With a career-high completion percentage of 67.2%, he amassed 3,678 yards, 24 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. Jackson averaged a league-high 5.5 yards per rush attempt in addition to adding 821 rushing yards and five touchdowns.
Lamar Jackson became the first Heisman Trophy winner to earn two NFL MVPs and the 11th player in NFL history to win multiple MVPs. While Jackson set a QB record with eight wins by 14 or more points against winning teams during the regular season, the Ravens had the best point differential (+178) against winning teams in an NFL season.
With a league-high 8.7 yards per attempt when under duress, Jackson recorded a career-high 14 passing touchdowns and 8.5 yards per attempt outside the numbers. However, this was insufficient to help Baltimore have a longer postseason campaign.
2023 was by far one of his healthiest years on record.
Lamar Jackson Has a Disturbing Injury History

Lamar Jackson has not been the most healthiest QB in the league since being drafted.
Jackson’s injuries have cost the Ravens the division title in 2021 and 2022.
Jackson suffered a knee injury that kept him out for the final five regular-season games and a playoff loss to the Bengals in 2022.
A season-ending injury to the starting quarterback is something that both Jackson and the Ravens are aware of. Prior to 2023, Jackson had sustained a season-ending injury in December of the previous two seasons when Baltimore was leading the AFC North. In 2021 and 2022, the Bengals overtook the Ravens for the division crown.
2023 has been his best and healthiest year, and hopefully, it can continue into 2024.
