Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson hasn\u2019t always participated in voluntary offseason work, but new Ravens head coach Jesse Minter has been impressed by what Jackson did this offseason.<\/p>\n

Although Jackson did not attend every day of voluntary workouts, Minter said Jackson\u2019s progress in learning new coordinator Declan Doyle\u2019s offense has been a testament to how seriously he\u2019s taking this offseason.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, [Jackson]’s been incredible. He\u2019s put in the time<\/a> \u2014 first of all, he\u2019s been here quite a bit and learned a lot. He\u2019s just an unbelievable leader and an infectious person when he\u2019s here,\u201d Minter said. \u201cI think he\u2019s done a great job leading the offense in the offseason \u2014 learning, being willing to try things, do different things and learn new terminology. I know he\u2019s very excited about where we\u2019re headed. \u2018Dec\u2019 has done a great job with the offense \u2014 he holds those guys to a really high standard, which is what we want to do as a group. I appreciate him always forwarding the team message in that regard. I\u2019m excited about where our offense is headed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Minter was a Ravens assistant during Jackson\u2019s first three seasons in Baltimore, but Minter coached on defense and is now getting to know Jackson better as a head coach.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s nobody I\u2019d rather have as the quarterback of this team, this franchise,\u201d Minter said. \u201cThe way that [Jackson] operates, how infectious he is, how much joy he brings to the preparation and the practice field \u2014 yes, he\u2019s been everything. You come in, and you kind of know him, but you don\u2019t know him super well. Relationships, like I talked about at the beginning, take time, and I think we\u2019ve built up a good trust and communication and a good relationship. [He] plus all the guys \u2014 just the way they\u2019ve operated has been very much appreciated.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson hasn\u2019t always participated in voluntary offseason work, but new Ravens head coach Jesse Minter…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":722847,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-722846","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/722846","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=722846"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/722846\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/722847"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=722846"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=722846"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=722846"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
