The Baltimore Ravens drafted center Tyler Linderbaum with the 25th pick in the 2022 NFL draft. Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson sent out a cryptic tweet not too long after the Linderbaum pick was announced, causing a stir throughout the NFL world. There were plenty of narratives about what Jackson could have meant by his tweet, and many created ideas what it was in reference to.

However, after the fact Jackson sent out another tweet clarify what he meant. He made it clear that his tweet was not about the selection of Linderbaum.

Center was a position of need after Bradley Bozeman signed with the Carolina Panthers, so the Linderbaum pick helps solidify the offensive line. The selection of the former Hawkeye will help Jackson stay upright in the pocket and have time to go through his progressions to showcase his elite talent.
