Lamar Jackson was the last pick of the first round in 2018 and has spent his whole professional career proving that spot wrong, winning NFL Most Valuable Player honours twice as the Baltimore Ravens quarterback while wearing number 8. His jersey is one of the most common sights in our NFL range, and the versions we stock are current Ravens builds rather than throwbacks: the purple and black 2023 F.U.S.E. Vapor jerseys and the purple F.U.S.E. Color Rush. The Lamar Jackson jersey you buy today is a purple or black stitched Ravens jersey with the number 8 sewn on, priced at $69.95. This guide covers what each version looks like, how the sizing runs for men, women and youth, and how to wash and style a stitched jersey so it still looks new next season.
Lamar Jackson's career and the jerseys that mark it
Jackson played college football at Louisville, where his 2016 season won the Heisman Trophy, and Baltimore drafted him 32nd overall in 2018. He took over as the starter during his rookie year and has been the Ravens' quarterback since, which makes the number 8 jersey one of the most stable pieces of merchandise in the league.
The 2019 season is the one that changed how people talk about him: he was named NFL Most Valuable Player by a unanimous vote, a distinction only a handful of players have earned in league history, and the purple home jersey from that era remains the most requested Ravens shirt we sell.
He added a second MVP award for the 2023 season, and that is the season the current purple and black F.U.S.E. Vapor jerseys correspond to. The Color Rush version uses the same number and nameplate in a deeper all-purple treatment, so you can pick between the standard home look and the alternate look without changing player or team.
Should you buy a Lamar Jackson jersey?
Yes, a Lamar Jackson jersey is worth buying if you want a Ravens quarterback jersey that stays current. Jackson has been Baltimore's starter since 2018, he wears 8, he was a unanimous NFL Most Valuable Player for the 2019 season, and he won the award again for the 2023 season, so the number 8 is a long-term fixture rather than a short trend. Every Lamar Jackson style we list is priced at $69.95, covering the purple 2023 F.U.S.E. Vapor jersey, the black 2023 F.U.S.E. Vapor jersey and the purple F.U.S.E. Color Rush, all with sewn numbers and nameplates. Sizes span men's S to 4XL, with women's XS to 2XL and youth S to XL available across the same styles. Choose purple for the classic Ravens home look or black and Color Rush if you want something that stands out at the stadium.
Availability note: because every Lamar Jackson style here is a current Ravens build, restocks follow the same supplier cycle as the rest of our NFL range, and the purple home jersey is consistently the first colourway to sell down.
Every Lamar Jackson jersey we sell
Six listings cover the lineup, split between the standard F.U.S.E. Vapor builds and the Color Rush treatment. They share the same number 8 and the same stitching quality, so the choice comes down to colour.
Purple is the safe pick and the one most people picture when they think of the Ravens; the black and Color Rush versions are the ones you buy when you already own the home jersey.
Size, fit and care for the Ravens 8 jersey
The Lamar Jackson styles are listed in men's S to 4XL, women's XS to 2XL and youth S to XL. The men's cut is a regular football jersey shape with comfortable room through the chest and shoulders, so it works as an outer layer over a t-shirt, and most buyers who want to wear it over a hoodie order one size up. If you are wearing it on its own, your normal shirt size is the right call because the stitched build will not shrink much after washing.
To keep the jersey sharp, wash it inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle and never put it in the dryer. Skip bleach and fabric softener, which break down fabric and dull the stitched panels, and hang it to dry on a wide hanger so the shoulders hold their shape. If the jersey needs pressing, use low heat and put a cloth between the iron and the number rather than pressing directly onto the stitching.
Styling a Lamar Jackson jersey
Purple and black is a strong combination, so let the jersey lead. The purple F.U.S.E. Vapor jersey looks best with black jeans and plain white or black sneakers, and it works with grey joggers if you are watching from home rather than standing in the stadium. The black version is the most wearable of the three away from football, because black on black reads almost like a normal jersey-style top. The Color Rush jersey is the one to wear when you want the alternate look, and it pairs well with dark denim and a plain cap.
Start with the Baltimore Ravens jersey collection to see every colourway in one place, and if you are comparing AFC quarterbacks before deciding, our Patrick Mahomes jersey guide covers the other side of that conversation. The rest of the team-by-team breakdowns sit in the NFL jersey guides hub.
