Returning Lamar Jackson leads Baltimore Ravens to win at Miami Dolphins

The Ravens put on a strong defensive showing at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, restricting the hosts to just two field goals.

Jackson admitted after the game that he felt “a little bit rusty” on the first play but he soon settled into a rhythm.

He found Andrews with two of his touchdown passes in the first half before picking out Charlie Kolar to round-off an 11-play, 68-yard drive in the third quarter. He threw his final touchdown pass to Rashod Bateman.

“Whenever you’re away from the game, you miss it,” said Ravens’ running back Derrick Henry whose 119 yards across 19 carries saw him become the 17th player in NFL history to go past the 12,000-yard career rushing mark.

“It was even better that, when he [Jackson] came back, it was in his hometown. So, it probably gave him a little more juice.”
