This funny incident came about a week after when the Ravens fullback Patrick Ricard recalled a famous “poop-gate” incident, wherein Jackson allegedly went to the bathroom.

What’s the popular “poop-gate” incident?

In 2020, there was a funny incident known as “poop-gate” or “poop-game” during an NFL game. The Ravens were facing the Browns on December 15. And in the midst of the game, when the Purple team was leading, Lamar Jackson left the field suddenly, leaving everyone curious. On the podcast, “Green Light with Chris Long podcast,” Patrick Ricard revealed that they were without their starting quarterback on the field after Jackson’s sudden exit. He informed that things went worse when their backup quarterback also got injured, and they almost had to use a wide receiver as their gun slinger.

However, just in time, the quarterback made a dramatic return from the tunnel, and threw a touchdown pass to Hollywood Brown, leading the Ravens to a 47-42 victory. This moment went viral, with many fans joking that Jackson left the game to go to the washroom. Nevertheless, Jackson later clarified that he had calf cramps, and not a bathroom emergency.

Despite the confusion, the incident became a funny and memorable story for NFL fans.
