Lamar Jackson: Combine results and workout sources

The 2018 table has no sprint result. NFL reporting also says the quarterback did not run for scouts during the predraft process. The often repeated 4.34 claim refers to an earlier run he described, not a recorded scouting event.

Read the workout in context

Baltimore chose the Louisville passer at the end of the first round. The lack of a timed workout does not mean he lacked speed. It means this record cannot support a measured draft sprint or a numerical speed ranking.

What the measurements tell you

The college listed for this draft entry is Louisville. The selection was round 1, pick 32, in 2018, by Baltimore Ravens. This identifies the selecting club rather than a present day team.

The reviewed draft record lists 6 ft 2 in and 216 pounds. Draft measurements describe that point in time. A later team roster can list different measurements, so use a dated roster for a current size question.

Using the results fairly

Jumps test power in different directions. The cone and shuttle use different paths, so their times are not interchangeable. Lifting repetitions do not show catching skill or passing accuracy. These tests add a physical snapshot to a draft report; they do not replace film, production or a medical review.

This table follows the source notes rather than choosing the best mark from several events. Where a second report differs, the event note explains the gap. We publish no percentile without a defined comparison group, sample size and calculation.

What to check for this record

A video of a long rushing play cannot supply the missing draft time. Game movement includes a start, pads, defenders and changes of direction. The earlier 4.34 story and a scouting event would need separate labels even if both claims appeared in the same player biography.

Questions readers ask

Which draft team selected this player?

Baltimore Ravens selected the Louisville QB in round 1, at pick 32, in 2018. This is draft history, not a current roster claim.

What does an empty test field mean?

It means the reviewed source does not record a result. It does not mean zero, and it does not prove why the athlete did not have a listed mark.

Sources and review method

We checked the linked records for this update. Team and school reports can explain the event. Historical tables compile results and may leave fields empty. We keep that distinction visible and do not claim an affiliation with the source publishers.
