Lamar Jackson nearly won Offensive Player of the Year award too

Saints WR Michael Thomas barely won the 2019 NFL Offensive Player of the Year award, beating Ravens QB Lamar Jackson by just two votes

The Baltimore Ravens cleaned up at the NFL Honors ceremony, winning multiple awards. But quarterback Lamar Jackson nearly won the Ravens’ fifth award and his third of the night with the 2019 NFL Offensive Player of the Year trophy. However, Jackson was edged out by New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas by just two votes, according to ESPN’s Jamison Hensley.

Jackson had a magical season that saw him win the NFL’s MVP and FedEx Air Player of the Year awards. He completed 66.1% of his passes for 3,127 passing yards, 36 passing touchdowns to only six interceptions while adding another 1,206 rushing yards and seven rushing touchdowns. It’ll go down as one of the best overall seasons by a quarterback in NFL history after breaking multiple franchise and league records.

But Thomas’ season was also magical and deserving of the award, especially with Jackson winning the bigger MVP race. Thomas led the league with 149 receptions for 1,725 yards — ranking first and seventh all-time in NFL history for a single season.

Though it’s sad Jackson didn’t sweep the awards ceremony, how close he came proves that plenty of pundits are firmly in his corner now.

Which awards should Ravens win for 2019

The Ravens could be hauling in quite a few awards for their work this season, but which ones should they win at the NFL Honors ceremony?

The Baltimore Ravens might not have finished the season the way they wanted but they exceeded almost all expectations along the way. With the NFL Honors ceremony the night before Super Bowl 54, the Ravens are in line to win some serious hardware for their work this season.

But out of all the awards that will be handed out, which ones should Baltimore actually win? Let’s take a look at four awards I believe the Ravens are frontrunners for.

MVP: Lamar Jackson

This seems like a pretty obvious one and it would be shocking if Jackson didn’t win the NFL’s MVP award. Jackson was easily the most electric player on the field this season, creating a whole list of highlights that have to be seen to be believed. But the MVP award isn’t just about cool plays. However, Jackson has the stats to back up his case.

Jackson led the NFL in touchdown passes (36), TD% (9.0%), perfect passer ratings (2 games), broke Michael Vick’s single-season rushing record with (1,206 yards) and led the league in rushing average (6.9 YPC). In total, Jackson combined for 4,333 total yards and 43 touchdowns, while winning five Offensive Player of the Week awards, a first-team All-Pro and Pro Bowl nod.

As if the stats and broken records weren’t enough to warrant the award, Jackson completely redefined the position as we know it. That makes him the most valuable player in the NFL in my book.
