Falling behind for the first time Saturday, the Baltimore Ravens responded one minute later when Lamar Jackson tossed the longest touchdown pass of his career.

Jackson connected with tight end Mark Andrews for 68 yards, which was the longest for the Ravens since Joe Flacco threw a 95-yard touchdown pass to Mike Wallace in 2016. The touchdown put the Ravens ahead of the Los Angeles Chargers 13-10 in the third quarter.
Jackson has only two completions of more than 28 yards this season -- and both have gone to Andrews.
This was an unlikely strike for Jackson, who had 27 air yards on that third-quarter touchdown pass. He was 1-of-7 with no touchdowns on passes of at least 25 air yards in his career before that throw.
