Lamar Jackson was arguably the best player to ever play for Louisville Football, and today he was celebrated for everything he brought to the Cards on and off the field. CSZ has video of Lamar’s half time jersey retirement ceremony as well as a collection of tweets celebrating the great number 8. You can see them all below.
Welcoming @Lj_era8 home is a feeling we'll never forget.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson will have his No. 8 jersey retired today by Louisville during the game vs. Syracuse. However, initially he hated the number and it took some convincing from his mother to keep it.
