Davante Adams makes his feelings on Lamar Jackson perfectly clear ahead of matchup

Davante Adams every time he sees in action.

Ahead of Las Vegas' Week 2 matchup with , the heaped immense praise for how the Ravens superstar plays.

In particular, Adams claimed Jackson was among the best players of all time when carrying the ball for scores.

Typically, quarterbacks are known for their accuracy, and ability to improvise, if needed.

With Jackson, however, the 27-year-old is known for his accuracy, improvisation and speed with the ball, which is unheard of for quarterbacks, which Adams notes.

Speaking with reporters Wednesday, Adams was asked what he thought of Jackson as his Raiders prepared to contain the multifaceted quarterback.

It was then that the wide receiver took a moment to effuse Jackson's praise, with both teams looking for their first win of the 2024 NFL season.

"Dude changed the game," Adams shared, "He's the best, in my opinion, best ball-carrier ever - no matter what position you want to talk about.

I don't think anybody's as big of a threat carrying the football." Adams' praise of the Ravens star is not unwarranted as Jackson is only one of three quarterbacks to surpass 1,000 rushing yards in a single season, joining Michael Vick and Justin Fields.

Among the three, Jackson is the only quarterback to have multiple seasons with over 1,000 rushing yards, doing so twice.

At 27, Jackson already is third in quarterback rushing yards with 5,380 behind only Cam Newton (5,631) and Vick (6,109).

With Jackson's age and proficiency in running the ball, Adams credited the star's ability to continue expanding his game to complement his passing ability.

"Obviously, he's worked really hard to develop in the other parts of his game, as well, and you've seen that come a long way too," Adams continued.

"He's a huge threat, somebody you gotta be accountable for out there and make sure you know what he's doing." Adams admitted that he often watched Jackson's highlights at his locker before games and believed the quarterback was a "helluva football player." Sunday's matchup marks the first time the two will face each other, with their first opportunity in 2021 to play against each other spoiled because Jackson was injured.

Alongside Adams in singing Jackson's praise was star quarterback .

After a "nerve-wracking" 27-20 win in Week 1, Mahomes shared how he believes the Ravens will be a team to look out for as the season progresses.

"That's a great football team, to come out here and get a win at Arrowhead, that's a way to start a season," Mahomes .

"I feel like the guys responded well, that's a great start.

Thats a team thats going to be in the playoffs.

I know its a long way away but that (win) could be home field advantage.".
