GOOD NEWS: Lamar Jackson gives young Baltimore Ravens fan money-can’t-buy Christmas gift.THANHDUNG

Lamar Jackson spread holiday cheer both on and off the field during the Baltimore Ravens’ Christmas Day win.

With just over 10 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter of the Ravens’ 31-2 win over the Houston Texans, Jackson took an early trip to the locker room with the game all-but decided.

Jackson’s heartfelt gesture wasn’t the only highlight moment from Wednesday’s game. On the Ravens’ second offensive snap of the third quarter, he faked a handoff to running back Derrick Henry and sped past a horde of Texans defenders on a 48-yard touchdown run.
