Robert Griffin III (RG3) is a former No. 2 overall pick and a Heisman-winning quarterback who mentored Lamar Jackson during the 2019 season that saw the former Louisville quarterback win his first MVP award.

Fast forward five years, and Jackson has earned another MVP award, and he’s among the top five best signal-callers in the game.

Recently, Griffin III spoke with Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson about many topics, including which NFL player revamped the game like how Stephen Curry changed the NBA and basketball as a whole.

Griffin III chose Ravens two-time MVP Lamar Jackson, highlighting his penchant for doing whatever it takes to win the game.

“Steph Curry kind of changed the game with the three-point line and how you do that,” said Griffin.

“Oh man, I would say it’s Lamar Jackson because Patrick Mahomes in my opinion is like LeBron, you know what I mean? He can do it all — his scrambling ability shows up when you least expect it in the Super Bowl or in the AFC Championship Game but, Lamar has shown you that you don’t have to throw for 4,000 yards to win MVP; you don’t have to do it the way they tell you to do it. He’s kind of implemented this way where he can be a quarterback and it helps Jalen Hurts, it helps Kyler Murray… it helps Jalen Milroe who’s coming out after this year I think [laughs]… and that’s why I would say that Lamar is that guy because he changes the way you view the quarterback position — it doesn’t mean that [Michael] Vick didn’t do it, it doesn’t mean that Colin [Kapernick] didn’t do it, it doesn’t mean that I didn’t do it or Randall Cunningham… It’s just that he’s won two MVP’s. He’s the greatest dual threat quarterback in NFL history and I think that he’s changed the game.”

Jackson delivered his MVP moment and put the Bengals to sleep when he stiff-armed Sam Hubbard before throwing a dart to Isaiah Likely for a touchdown, leading the Baltimore Ravens to a comeback win in Week 5.

Jackson is third in the NFL with nine touchdown passes, fourth in passer rating, fifth in QBR, and playing some of the best football of his career.
