Raven’s QB Lamar Jackson, Still Not Sold on Vaccine, , Despite Two Bouts With COVID-19.
On Monday, Lamar Jackson
spoke briefly at a post-practice
press conference about his return
to the Baltimore Ravens’
training camp.
The 24-year-old star quarterback was out of
practice for 10 days after catching COVID-19. .
It is the second time
he has contracted
the virus in the past
eight months.
Jackson first tested positive in November 2020
and missed a game because of it. .
During both bouts with COVID-19, Jackson reportedly
experienced flu-like symptoms and extreme fatigue.
When asked by a reporter whether he’d now consider
getting vaccinated, Jackson remained noncommittal. .
I got to talk to my team about
this and see how they feel
about it. Keep learning as much
as I can about it. We’ll go from
there … We’ll see. Talking to
the doctors. We’ll see, Lamar Jackson, via ESPN.
He was pressed further by another reporter, who asked
him if he was concerned about setting a “good example.”.
I want to inspire the kids and
I want to inspire the community,
but you know at the same time
… people are going to feel however
they want to feel about certain
situations and you just have to
go about it however you want
to go about it, Lamar Jackson, via ESPN.
Jackson reiterated his vaccination stance
again towards the end of the press conference,
saying he believed it to be a “personal decision.”.
I'm just going to keep my
feelings to my family and
myself. I'm focused on
getting better right now.
I can't dwell on that right
now ... how everybody
else feels. Just trying to get
back to the right routine, Lamar Jackson, via ESPN.

John Harbaugh told reporters
that about 90 percent of the
Baltimore team was vaccinated.
The Ravens have their first preseason game
