Lamar Jackson's Heisman Trophy is Still in a Box So it's Unclear Where His MVP Trophy Could Possibly Go
By Jerry Trotta
If there's one thing that Lamar Jackson has made clear in 2019 -- other than announcing his superstardom, of course -- it's that he doesn't quite care for any individual mementos that come his way. He has his eyes squarely set on a Super Bowl.
Unfortunately for the Baltimore Ravens' signal caller, his groundbreaking campaign will be rewarded with countless keepsakes, with his inevitable MVP crown unquestionably being the most distinguished of the bunch.
There's only one problem: Jackson's Heisman Trophy, which he won with Louisville back in 2016, is apparently still in its original box.
Lamar Jackson was asked if he has place where he'll keep all his upcoming awards. He said he still doesn't even have a place for his Heisman yet, adding it's still in the box. He reiterated that while he's grateful for the individual accolades, his main goal is the Super Bowl.

Of course it is.
Therefore, it's anyone's guess as to where the sophomore sensation's MVP hardware could possibly go. After all, if LJ didn't opt to display his Heisman in a spiffy glass case, why should we believe that he would do something different with the NFL's own MVP trophy?
Only Lamar Jackson would still have his 2016 Heisman Trophy in the box. Never satisfied. A cold-blooded competitor. pic.twitter.com/5VqVGXSDu9

It's simply the kind of attitude that the 22-year-old "Freaky L" has personified since being drafted by Baltimore in 2018. We'll go out on a limb and say that it's working just fine for him.
