The Baltimore Ravens apparently wanted a first-round pick over Hollywood Brown. It looks like Lamar Jackson doesn’t seem thrilled about the trade.
The 2022 NFL Draft has featured some truly wild trades and it looks like Lamar Jackson isn’t a big fan of at least one of them. The Baltimore Ravens made the choice to move Hollywood Brown to the Arizona Cardinals and Jackson doesn’t seem super thrilled about the matter.
Moments after the trade was announced, Jackson took to Twitter to share some very brief thoughts on the matter. And those thoughts aren’t exactly happy ones.
A little while later, Jackson got back on Twitter for a very brief tweet. It appears as if he had a pretty simple question. It’s pretty short, very straightforward, and definitely easy to understand.
Yeah, Jackson doesn’t seem happy that Brown is no longer in Baltimore.
2022 NFL Draft: Lamar Jackson sounds off after Baltimore Ravens trade Hollywood Brown to Arizona Cardinals
Jackson being unhappy with this situation shouldn’t surprise anyone. This isn’t exactly shocking news. A little over a month ago, when the brief thought of Baltimore possibly trading Brown came up in the form of a tweet from ESPN’s Bill Barnwell, Jackson did everything he possibly could on Twitter to shut that sort of trade talk down as soon as possible.
Jackson certainly doesn’t come across as someone who wanted Brown to be traded by Baltimore at any point here. Nobody should really blame him either.
Last season, Brown was captivating, catching 91 passes in the regular season for 1,008 yards and six touchdowns. In his career so far, Brown has 195 regular-season receptions for 2,361 yards and 21 touchdowns. He’s getting better and showing some promise. Kyler Murray and the Cardinals will be glad for that.
