Overview
- Lamar Jackson, who appeared in a team video Monday, reported to Phase One at the Under Armour Performance Center and took part in workouts.
- His arrival followed days of uncertainty after Jesse Minter said he was unsure how much Jackson would join the voluntary program.
- With Minter taking over and Declan Doyle set to call plays for the first time, early time on site helps install a new offense and build trust.
- Jackson is participating as extension talks continue after Baltimore reworked his contract last month to free about $40 million in 2026 cap space.
- He skipped eight of nine voluntary sessions last spring, and this change drew praise from analysts as a positive sign while Eric Mangini questioned the optics.
