Brian Billick 'Has Concerns' About Ravens QB Lamar Jackson

The Baltimore Ravens' 23-17 wild-card loss to the Los Angeles Chargers magnified many of the questions about the sustainability of the offense the Ravens ran down the stretch, and former Baltimore head coach Brian Billick expressed reservations about quarterback Lamar Jackson's long-term prospects as a passer.

Jackson threw for 194 yards and two touchdowns Jan. 6, but much of that production came in the fourth quarter after the Chargers had built a three-score lead. During the first half, Jackson threw for 17 yards and an interception on 2-of-8 passing and fumbled twice, neither of which was recovered by the Chargers.

Jackson completed 58.2 percent of his passes for 1,201 yards, six touchdowns and three interceptions during the regular season. Billick, who coached the Ravens from 1999-2007, raised concerns about whether Jackson can develop into the pocket passer necessary for the Ravens' offense to grow.
