Lamar Jackson won his second NFL MVP award last season, leading the league in yards rushing for a quarterback with 821 while finishing fourth in passer rating (102.7) and yards per attempt (8.0). But the numbers that matter most are 1-4, which is Jackson’s record in head-to-head matchups with Chiefs counterpart Patrick Mahomes.
