Lamar Jackson: Loop's Legacy Begins Now

Published September 28, 2026 · Updated September 28, 2026 · NBC Sports

Lamar Jackson inspired Tyler Loop before the Ravens kicker nailed a 56-yard field goal in Rio, redeeming himself from last season's playoff miss.

Before Tyler Loop's 56-yard field goal attempt in the final moments against the Cowboys in Rio, Lamar Jackson told his kicker, "Your legacy starting now." The Ravens quarterback was referencing Loop's past adversity, particularly the missed field goal at the end of last season that kept Baltimore out of the playoffs.

Loop delivered, making the kick to secure a dramatic victory in the NFL's first visit to Rio's Maracaña stadium. "What a way to start your legacy in Brazil," Jackson said. "He did it. Shout out to special teams, shout out to Loop." The kick was particularly meaningful for the Ravens, as the historic stadium has hosted many memorable kicks but none with such significance for Baltimore. esporist.com
