Ravens’ Lamar Jackson shoves fan after getting smacked in helmet following TD strike

On Sunday night, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson had a standout performance and a brief sideline controversy in a win over the Buffalo Bills. Late in the third quarter, Jackson connected with DeAndre Hopkins on a dazzling 29-yard, one-handed touchdown catch that extended Baltimore’s lead to 34-19.Hopkins kept his composure and walked away without responding, while Jackson quickly returned to the sideline to regroup. The incident sparked discussion on the broadcast, with Cris Collinsworth noting that although players are expected to avoid confronting fans, moments like this highlight how easily situations can cross the line. Hopkins didn’t respond, and Jackson quickly regained his composure on the sideline. NBC broadcaster Cris Collinsworth commented that while players aren’t allowed to engage with fans, incidents like this “get a little ridiculous.” By the end of the third quarter, Jackson had completed 12 of 15 passes for 194 yards with two touchdowns, plus 38 rushing yards and another score. Derrick Henry also dominated, piling up 129 rushing yards and a touchdown. For Baltimore, the game carried extra weight, as the team sought payback for a playoff loss to Buffalo last season that cut short an otherwise stellar campaign.
