Bengals DB Shawn Williams backs Lamar Jackson for MVP
Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens ran all over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, leaving at least one opponent quite impressed.
Many Ravens fans made the trip to Cincinnati to root on the Ravens, and there were audible MVP chants for Jackson during the game. Those chants were understandable: Jackson threw for 223 yards and three touchdowns while rushing for 65 more yards and another score. He did all of that without playing the fourth quarter due to Baltimore’s big lead.
When Bengals safety Shawn Williams was asked about those chants, he didn’t bother hiding his admiration, and essentially said the fans weren’t wrong.

Bengals fans may not like Williams being that honest in his appreciation of Jackson, but he’s definitely not alone. Jackson has a few other votes as well. When you watch some of the stuff he managed to do on Sunday, it’s easy to understand why. Not bad for a guy that some teams weren’t convinced would stick at quarterback.
