The ninth-year quarterback is a four-time Pro Bowler, three-time First-Team All-Pro, and, of course, a 2x MVP. What's so dynamic about Jackson's game is his versatility. He has the running skills of your favorite running back, yet can throw the deep ball as well as any quarterback in the league.

Jackson's dual-threat versatility poses a major challenge for Saints' pass rush in Week 2.

Lamar Jackson is a nine-year veteran, four-time Pro Bowler, three-time First-Team All-Pro, and 2x MVP whose dynamic versatility—combining running-back-caliber rushing skills with deep-ball throwing ability—makes him a primary threat for the Saints' pass rush to contain. The source notes that forcing Jackson to attack short and medium field by getting to him quickly is the best defensive strategy, but New Orleans sacked Jared Goff just once in Week 1, raising concerns about their ability to pressure him effectively against a Ravens offense that scored 41 points last week.
