Cowboys look to corral Ravens’ Lamar Jackson in Rio as questions about field conditions persist
Dallas Cowboys are planning to face Baltimore Ravens in Rio de Janeiro, two years after Cowboys' defensive tackle Kenny Clark played for Green Bay Packers on a "mushy" field. The first regular-season game in Rio de Janeiro will see the NFL's most dangerous mobile quarterback Lamar Jackson take on the Dallas Cowboys. Jackson, who is not worried about the field conditions, said, "I am locked in."
Both teams will arrive in Rio after a long 10-hour flight, departing Thursday evening and arriving Friday morning. The Cowboys are facing challenges in their defense, allowing 4.5 yards per carry in the running game and have allowed a league-worst 68% conversion rate in the past two weeks. Baltimore's Lamar Jackson, who has an impressive record against the NFC, will be looking to challenge the Cowboys' defense once again.
