A photo of Lamar Jackson hugging Patrick Queen after the Ravens-Steelers Wild Card showdown has Baltimore fans freaking out on social media.
After the Ravens’ 28-14 victory of Pittsburgh on Saturday, Ian Rapoport posted a photo of the post-game exchange and revealed the linebacker had been having ‘a really bad bout with the flu.’
‘He received 4 IV bags before the game and went out there and played,’ Rapoport added.
With the Ravens set to meet the Buffalo Bills on Sunday in a divisional playoff game, fans expressed concern over Queen making contact with Jackson, citing how the quarterback had missed several practices this season due to illness.
‘Aye this n**** was out there infecting our whole team,’ one fan wrote on X. ‘Hell no he shouldn’t have been able to play.’
‘Oh no! Lamar Jackson has the immune system of a 5 year old going back to school after summer break. Stay healthy #8,’ another added.
‘GET HIM AWAY FROM LAMAR BRO WTF LAMAR GOT THE WEAKEST IMMUNE SYSTEM ITL,’ exclaimed a third.
‘So what you’re saying is he tried to get my QB sick,’ a fourth chimed in.
A fifth fan reiterated that ‘Lamar gets sick more than a doorknob-licking toddler. Ravens are cooked.’
Despite his sickness, Queen had 10 tackles, including six solos, in their losing effort to the Ravens.
On the other hand, Jackson completed 16 of 21 attempts for 175 yards and two touchdowns to lead Baltimore to victory.
The Bills are 13-4 and finished their season on top of the AFC East. They are coming off a Wild Card win in which they torched the Denver Broncos 31-7.
