Football MVP Lamar Jackson was diagnosed with COVID-19 around Thanksgiving. Jackson said he was sick as a dog and that he “wouldn’t wish that on nobody.” According to TMZ, Jackson had a hard time tasting and smelling things.
“I had a little flu-like symptoms. I still can’t really taste or smell, but I’m good now,” Jackson stated. “That’s an effect that comes with Covid-19. I guess my sense of taste and smell are going to come back sooner than later, but I’m good now. I wouldn’t wish that on anybody, though. It’s not good to have.”
Jackson spent two weeks out after testing positive for the coronavirus. He was one of 23 players that were on the COVID-19 list. The star returned to the field, scoring three touchdowns for the Baltimore Ravens.
