The NFL game crowd at M&T Bank Stadium last night was blown away with the results of the game. The New England Patriots’ perfect 8-0 record ended against Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens won with a score of 37-20. And all eyes were on Lamar Jackson, the newest MVP who slayed it in the game.

It was the 22-year-old quarterback Lamar Jackson, who led the Ravens to a field goal. According to CBS Sports, he “had completed 17 of 23 passes for 163 yards and a touchdown, and also carried 14 times for 62 yards and two additional scores.”

Moreover, after the game was concluded, Tom Brady congratulated him on his stellar performance. Lamar grew up watching Tom Brady. It must have been an amazing moment for him!

 

In an interview with NBC Sports the day before the game, Lamar explained he’s still out to prove his doubters wrong. His fans are behind him. Lamar is known for his humility and has effortlessly gained the respect of thousands of supporters.

One fan commented on the video, “Humility, respect, hardworking, always grinding to get better. Just what the league needs!”

Lamar Jackson and Faith

Lamar’s Twitter posts reveal the reason behind his humble nature: His faith in God.

He tweeted on December of 2018, “I Promise God will Take you places you’ve never been” with a hashtag KeepyourloyaltywiththeLord”. It seems like he knows God was up to something and he trusted Him.

 

According to a report in Baltimore Ravens News, Lamar said he fears God above all. 

No wonder God is lifting him up today. His humility before God truly speaks in his life, on the field and off.

People speculate that Lamar could be the greatest quarterback in NFL history. God is definitely blessing his career. More than the title and the fame, he aims for God’s glory to be seen. Greater things are yet ahead of Lamar Jackson, all for His Name!

On Saturday’s college football game between Alabama and Georgia, one player, Alabama Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa injured his ankle which caused him to be taken off the field during the fourth quarter. According to the Sports Spectrum Magazine, he underwent immediate surgery because of the injury.

However, before he was taken to the hospital, Shaun Alexander, former running back for the Seattle Seahawks and Washington Redskins, greeted the college player while he was on his way to the locker room. What’s more surprising is that Shaun did a very wonderful thing a follower of Jesus would do. He brazenly prayed for Tua’s injury.

This powerful moment was not captured by national television cameras as they were covering the game. Instead, the sports anchor of WVTM-13, Kyle Burger, tweeted what he captured.

The video reveals Shaun intentionally greeting Tua to pray for him.

The Former NFL running back was a big name during his time for nine years. According to the Sports Spectrum Magazine, he went to three Pro Bowls, won a league MVP award and starred with the Seattle Seahawks from 2000-2007, appearing in Super Bowl XL.

But no matter the fame and the professional achievements, he has always called himself a man of God first.

Previously, he told CBN, “I am a Christian that loves the Lord that just happens to play football, that happens to get to be on cool TV shows, that happens to get to be on commercials. I’m a Godly man first. I chase after God. I play football for the sole reason to give God Glory.”

Tua Tagovailoa, a sophomore at Alabama and a Heisman Trophy candidate, is also a devout Christian.

As CBN News reported, Tua, like Shaun has received praise for boldly demonstrating his love for God whether it may be on or off the field.
