Is Lamar Jackson OK? Ravens QB throws touchdown after returning from 'cramps' break, fans say 'he went to poop'

'They just showed the replay of him running back to the toilet and said it was for cramps,' said a user

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson had to rush off to the locker room during the game against the Cleveland Browns. He left in the third quarter as the Browns were driving for what turned into a touchdown. According to the team, his return was questionable. NBC's pro football talk also added that was suffering from cramps and was presumably treated with an IV in the locker room. Before rushing off, Jackson has completed six of 11 passes for 81 yards and has run for 124 yards with two touchdowns on nine carries. This feat is the most rushing yards ever for a quarterback on Monday Night Football.

Fans on Twitter had quite a different opinion as they felt he was in dire need of taking a dump. "He ran into the locker room and didn't look like he had cramps. Definitely looked like he shat himself though. #lamarjackson #nfl #mondaynightfootball #RavensVsBrowns #poop," read one of the tweets. This was seconded by another who said, "This LAMAR JACKSON "Cramp Break" brought to you by PEPTO BISMOL ..... HUGE MARKETING OPPPORTUNITY!!" "lmaooo they just showed the replay of him running back to the toilet and said it was for cramps," read another tweet.

"See? All Lamar had to do was take a shit. Once his bowel was clean, his passing lanes were too. God bless the powers of fiber," one of the fans reckoned. Some reckoned it was a case of diarrhea. "COVID diarrhea is real&with Keyontae Johnson being evaluated for possible Covid related heart infection you'd think ppl would be more sensitive. We all know Lamar Jackson had worst COVID case on his team, I do hope it's not a COVID-related complication," read one of the tweets. But the questionable return was out of the question. "We get to tell our grandchildren about the time Lamar Jackson came out of the locker room after taking a shit and threw a go-ahead touchdown against the Browns," opined a fan.

Last month, Jackson tested positive for Covid-19. The Ravens at the time of writing were leading 42-35 with the fourth quarter in progress.
