When Brian Bomster-Jabs got pregame sideline passes to the Ravens’ regular-season finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers, he got to work.
The professional Baltimore artist whipped up a painting of Lamar Jackson in a week \u2013 and rain, 30-degree temperatures, and a whipping wind weren’t going to stop him from delivering it.
Jackson, who is inactive because there are no playoff implications for the Ravens, came over to Bomster-Jabs after team warmups to receive the gift.
“He was just so happy and appreciative. It was all love,” Bomster-Jabs said. “You could just see the joy and excitement in his eyes<\/a>. He was so happy and saying thank you.”

This @Ravens<\/a> fan made an incredible painting for @Lj_era8<\/a>. \ud83d\udc9c\ud83c\udfa8 pic.twitter.com\/HrTBdndXBe<\/a>
The painting includes depictions of Jackson throughout his football career \u2013 in high school, college, and the NFL. It includes him receiving his first NFL MVP award, as well as Jackson’s mother and friend\/rapper Kodak Black.
“I really wanted to commemorate what he’s accomplished so far,” Bomster-Jabs said. “I might have to update it soon though because we want that ‘ship.”
Bomster-Jabs grew up in Baltimore, just up the street from Memorial Stadium. He’s a “die-hard” Ravens fan, so the painting was a gift only \u2013 not for sale.
“Lamar gives Baltimore so much. He’s such an inspiration,” Bomster-Jabs said. “Celebrities and people always get asked for stuff so what I like to do is give. I like to give them their flowers.”
Bomster-Jabs also painted for Ray Lewis<\/a>\u00a0and other sports celebrities. Next up, he plans to paint for Kyle Hamilton (because he’s also Korean) and Zay Flowers.
Ravens S Geno Stone went back to the bench after coming out of the blue medical tent and is questionable to return.
The Ravens have six starters among their inactives for their Week 18 game against the Steelers.
Dalvin Cook was granted his release from the New York Jets and could now provide more depth in Baltimore’s backfield.
The Ravens have placed Daryl Worley on injured reserve and signed Jeremiah Moon to the 53-man roster.
With the AFC North and No. 1 seed clinched, the Ravens (13-3) resume their rivalry with the Steelers (9-7) who need a victory to keep their playoff hopes alive.
The Ravens donated 100 tickets to Saturday’s regular-season finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers to staff within both the Baltimore City and County Schools systems.
With several key Ravens resting, the Steelers are picked by most to win a third straight game and keep their playoff hopes alive.
Who is the Ravens’ defensive MVP? Isaiah Likely and Geno Stone have made a huge impact as replacement starters.
Making the Pro Bowl was emotional for Patrick Queen. Baltimore’s run defense will be tested by the Steelers. Tyler Huntley looks forward to his first start of the year.\u00a0
Lamar Jackson won’t be the only player not suiting up against Pittsburgh.
Jadeveon Clowney thought his NFL career was over. Nearly 10 years later, he’s having arguably his best season.
