Lamar Jackson Says He Ordered Ravens to Remove Locker-Room Games, Cut TVs to Refocus

Jackson presents the change as player-driven, correcting reports that credited coaches, with the ban lasting through the season.

Overview

  • Jackson said he told equipment chief Kenico Hines to take out video game consoles, ping-pong and cornhole, and to turn off the TVs.
  • He stated the amenities will not return to the locker room for the remainder of the season.
  • His comments clarify earlier reporting that had attributed the move to head coach John Harbaugh.
  • The purge came before a 30-16 win over the Bears with Tyler Huntley starting while Jackson sat with a hamstring injury.
  • Jackson said he feels great and is expected to play Thursday at Miami, while crediting owner Steve Bisciotti for originally installing the amenities.
