Just when the Baltimore Ravens thought they could focus solely on their Super Bowl pursuit, an unexpected wildcard has entered the playbook:
The 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.

And at the center of it? None other than Lamar Jackson.

With the NFL season expected to overlap with the Olympics, and flag football now an official Olympic sport, the internet is ablaze with speculation:

Will Lamar Jackson consider playing for Team USA?

While there’s been no confirmation, whispers around league circles — and subtle hints from Jackson himself — have sparked a full-on fan war online.

Social Media Erupts:

• “Lamar in the Olympics? That would be electric!”

• “We’re paying this man $260M to win us a Super Bowl, not chase medals.”

• “Let the man represent the country. He’s already a global icon.”

• “If he gets injured at the Olympics… season = over.”

It’s not just about national pride vs. team loyalty. This has triggered a deeper NFL debate:
Should star players even be allowed to risk injury on a non-NFL stage?

The Ravens front office is reportedly monitoring the Olympic schedule closely, knowing that even a conversation about Jackson joining Team USA could create massive locker room and media distractions.

Some fans argue this would cement Lamar’s legacy as a true all-time great athlete. Others say it would be the biggest betrayal of Baltimore sports loyalty in years.

“Olympics are nice,” one fan wrote. “But we’ve waited too long for a ring. Don’t blow it.”

With the Olympics inching closer and Jackson’s star only rising, this is more than just speculation — it’s a looming decision that could alter the trajectory of an entire NFL franchise.

Is Lamar Jackson about to spark an international moment… or an all-out football firestorm?
