Lamar Jackson discusses COVID-19 and possibly getting a vaccine, plans to 'keep learning as much as I can'

In his first press conference since contracting COVID-19 twice, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson described what he went through the first and second time, and that he'll talk to his doctors regarding possibly getting a COVID-19 vaccine.

“I just got off the COVID list,” Jackson said. “I got to talk to my team doctors and try to see how they feel about it, keep learning as much as I can about it and we’ll go from there.”

As of now, 90% of the Baltimore Ravens have been COVID-19 vaccinated, and as COVID-19 metrics continue to increase, Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott reissued the mask mandate regardless of vaccination status.
