Lamar Jackson facing backlash over his tiring behavior amid a tough 2025 season.

There appears to be a separation that could happen between Lamar Jackson and the Ravens. It’s been a tough year for a team that had Super Bowl aspirations.

A new article from The Baltimore Sun about the quarterback has spread like wildfire. It has certainly made things quite uncomfortable. The Baltimore Sun’s Mike Preston ignited quite the stick of dynamite when he spoke about his behavior. Preston also suggests that Baltimore consider trading Lamar Jackson. He noted that the South Florida native and two-time MVP “would love to play in Miami.

In one passage of the article, a source criticized Jackson for his actions. He stated that he stays up at night playing video games and falls asleep during meetings. Jackson was also told to attend more training events. He tends to only participate in mandatory minicamps.

Andrew Fillipponi of Pittsburgh’s 93.7 The Fan further called out Jackson for his behavior.

“Incredible Baltimore Sun article on Lamar Jackson. Claims he stays up late playing video games. And falls asleep in meetings. He’s 3-5 in the playoffs. With 7 interceptions. And 7 fumbles. He’s never winning a Super Bowl,” Fillipponi wrote in response.

ESPN’s Dan Graziano would then add that the team should either extend him or gauge interest in a potential trade.

John Harbaugh Breaks His Silence About Lamar Jackson Following Scathing Article

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh broke his silence this week. It followed a report by insider Mike Preston, who accused Lamar Jackson of sleeping during meetings.

On Wednesday, the Baltimore Sun published a hit piece. It also accused Jackson of playing video games late into the evening and receiving preferential treatment. This bombshell report elicited a response just hours later from Harbaugh.

“I’ll tell you how [I feel], as I’m pretty transparent with all the guys,” Harbaugh began. “I had a great conversation with him this morning about a few things. Football, how he’s feeling, things like that. “So our relationship is A-plus. I love him. Always have, always will. He’s fighting like crazy to get back.”

Harbaugh then directly addressed the report: “So, these reports… I don’t really need anybody speaking for me. So ask me, and I’ll tell you how I feel.”

This is Jackson’s worst-ever season from a statistical standpoint. He has just 2,311 yards in 12 games after having 4,172 in total last season. Lamar Jackson also has just 18 passing touchdowns after completing 41 last season.

The Ravens drafted Jackson in 2018. He has won two MVPs, but is 3-5 in the postseason. The farthest he has gone is to the AFC Championship game.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
