While all of it should go to Lamar and Lamar alone, there have been a few quarterbacks around the league in similar positions to him who have apparently reached out to support him getting to this point.A recent piece by The Undefeated’s William C. Rhoden reveals Cam Newton to be a mentor to the 22 year old Jackson, a relationship which began thanks to a run-in between Newton and Ravens’ executive Ozzie Newsome.

This includes some very impressive names such as Warren Moon, Shack Harris, and Michael Vick.Ultimately, in Lamar’s case, he’s proven that he can play and has potential to be great in this league. The support of contemporaries such as the former MVP Newton will only make the road even easier.
