Lamar Jackson’s magical series of moves on 4th-quarter TD pass has to be seen to be believed

By now, we’re well accustomed to Lamar Jackson pulling off incredible wizardry for the Baltimore Ravens. There’s a reason the superstar quarterback has two MVP honors to his name.

But Jackson’s work on Sunday afternoon against the Cincinnati Bengals might have taken the cake.

With Baltimore trying to mount a late fourth-quarter rally in a shootout, Jackson bobbled the snap on a second-and-goal play. However, it didn’t impede him from accomplishing anything. Instead, Jackson scrambled right, broke the tackle of Bengals defensive end Sam Hubbard, and launched a perfect off-platform dime into the end zone to tight end Isaiah Likely while veering out of bounds.

Jackson is truly the closest thing we have to Houdini in professional football:

Announcer Kevin Harlan’s call of the play was even better:

Every part of this magical touchdown pass sequence boggles the mind. From the bobbled snap to the broken tackle on a solid defender to the perfect touchdown pass from a less-than-ideal position. It’s all so sublime from one of the best quarterbacks in the game.

Remarkable plays like this make you think Jackson might even win his third MVP this year. Don’t rule it out.
