Baltimore Ravens star Lamar Jackson caught up with old friend Jaire Alexander during joint practices.
The Baltimore Ravens made the trip up to Wisconsin on Thursday for a spirited joint practice with the Green Bay Packers. For star quarterback Lamar Jackson, though, it doubled as an opportunity to reunite with an old friend.
The Ravens and Packers have only played once since both players were drafted in 2018, but that game, which took place on Dec. 19, 2021, took place when both Jackson and Alexander were injured. There was a preseason meeting in Baltimore in 2019, but even that was five years ago now. "Lamar’s a hell of a competitor as we all know," Alexander said. "It’s just good to see him out there running around. I thought he tried to juke me one time. He almost got me but thank God he didn’t. I think our defense flew around today and I think we looked much better from last week."
"It’s a testament to our work ethic," Alexander said. "We set out in this league to be great. We’re both taking strides to do so. It’s just fun watching him and watching us both grow and mature through this whole process."
