Lamar Jackson has burst onto the college football scene as the true sophomore has 18 total touchdowns in three games for the Cardinals. Last weekend Jackson led his team to a 63-20 win over Florida State, the No. 2 team in the nation at the time.

The challenge for Jackson wasn’t to big as he completed 65 percent of his passes while throwing for one score and adding four on the ground. With Louisville’s hot start, the Cardinals have soared up the rankings to No. 3 and Jackson has emerged as a front runner for the Heisman Trophy award.

Unfortunately, Jackson is a true sophomore and will not be draft eligible in 2018. Even so, his dominance during the first three games of the season makes him a prospect to keep tabs on moving forward, especially if the Browns don’t add a quarterback in the 2017 NFL Draft.

As a freshman in 2015, Jackson started eight games, completing 54 percent of his passes for 1,840 yards and 12 touchdowns. Jackson didn’t receive any national attention or hype this preseason and has surprised many with his natural playmaking ability.
