Lamar Jackson Gives Funny Quote on Fan Expectations for Ravens vs. Cowboys in Brazil

Ahead of Sunday's NFL Rio Game against the Dallas Cowboys, Baltimore Ravens star quarterback Lamar Jackson wasn't concerned about fans in Brazil rooting for his opponents.

"This is America, that's Brazil, so we'll see. We'll see," Jackson said with a smile.
