Ravens QB Lamar Jackson responds to criticism about absence from OTAs

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson responded to criticism of his absence from OTAs

The Baltimore Ravens kicked off their voluntary organized team activities this week, giving players the opportunity to get on the field with their teammates and build chemistry. However, with the workouts being not mandatory there isn’t a requirement to show up, a decision which some players have exercised.

One of the players who hasn’t shown up to OTAs is Baltimore star quarterback Lamar Jackson. There have been multiple schools of thought when talking about if Jackson should be at the workouts, but when Chris Simms criticized the signal caller for not being with his team Jackson responded, saying that OTAs are voluntary and that he will be there, just not on his watch.
