Ravens' Lamar Jackson Still Supported by Teammates After AFC Championship Loss

The Ravens' spectacular regular season did not translate to a Super Bowl run.

The Ravens' spectacular regular season did not translate to a Super Bowl run. Quarterback Lamar Jackson had one of the best seasons in Ravens' history and it earned him a second NFL MVP award, as he's now the youngest player in league history to win the award twice.

Jackson - along with most of the rest of the team - did not have the best game against the Chiefs in the title game, completing 20 of 37 passing attempts for 272 yards and one touchdown. The MVP also threw an interception and had a costly fumble on a strip sack.

But heading into the offseason, Jackson still has the support of his teammates, and rightfully so.

Safety Kyle Hamilton still considers Jackson the best player in the league.

"I don't think Lamar cares, nor do I, what other people have to say, outside of this building," Hamilton said via ESPN's Jamison Hensley. "Heavy is the head that wears the crown. So, there are a lot of people out there hoping for people like Lamar to fail, but we all know that he's the best player in this league."

Jackson was heavily criticized for his performance against the Chiefs, but teammate Jadeveion Clowney had some advice for him.

"I love him regardless of how that game shook out," Clowney said. "He's like my brother forever. I'm glad I got to play with him. I enjoyed it. I enjoy him, and I enjoy everybody else in this locker room, but, I'd tell him to 'keep your head up.'

"I dealt with that scrutiny throughout my career, and I just kept my head up, keeping the people around that love me and kept them close and build from there and continue to move forward."
