Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson continues to win over fans, both on and off the field.
Following the Ravens’ 30-23 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday night, Jackson made the night unforgettable for a couple of young fans with a heartwarming gesture.
After a stellar performance, where Jackson threw for two touchdowns and rushed for another, he took a moment to sign autographs for a group of excited young fans waiting inside SoFi Stadium.
While many athletes are known for taking quick exits after games, Jackson went above and beyond when he handed his beanie hat to one of the kids in the crowd. He also went on to give some of his game-worn items to the other kids.
The fans’ reactions were priceless, and their excitement was clear as they shouted in joy. The moment was captured in a video shared by ESPN, and the post was filled with praise for the quarterback’s generosity
“Lamar is the man! Core memory for those kids! MVP,” one fan commented.

“Lamar a real one for that! They’ll remember that forever,” another added.
Just a few weeks prior, after a win over the Denver Broncos, Lamar Jackson shared a similar moment with a young girl, who made him a friendship bracelet.
Jackson appreciated the thoughtful gift so much that he returned the kindness by giving her his beanie.
Jackson’s actions continue to show the heart behind the MVP-caliber athlete.
“I just like the bracelet, to be honest with you. It’s a dope gift. Appreciate you,” he explained to reporters.
