Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson turned on the jets with less than 3 minutes left in the first half of Sunday's wild-card playoff game at the Tennessee Titans.
The Ravens and Titans went into halftime tied 10-10.
Jackson's 48-yard rushing touchdown is the second-longest rush of his career (50-yard rush at Washington in Week 4 of this season), according to ESPN Stats & Information. It's also the longest scramble of Jackson's pro career.
The Ravens are 14-2 in games in which Jackson rushes for at least one touchdown.
Jackson now has six rushes of 20-plus yards in six games since returning from the reserve/COVID-19 list this season. He had five such rushes in his first 10 games played this season, with three coming in one game.
Here's what folks are saying about Jackson's run:
Lamar Jackson reached a top speed of 20.52 MPH on this 48-yard TD run, the 7th-fastest speed by a quarterback this season.

The crazy part is, for as fast as that play looked, it was only the third fastest run from Lamar this season. Next level speed.
Lamar is always one tiny crease away from making a defense pay!

After Tyreek Hill, Lamar Jackson might be the fastest player in the NFL! He just shot out of a cannon!

Damn, Lamar fast as hell

He doesn't have to throw it to give you a quick 50 yards. Lamar is the fastest person on the field once y'all get running. That's so scary in the open field.

The average human pulls both hamstrings off the bone trying to run as fast as Lamar Jackson.
