Their running styles could, quite literally, not be further from comparable

Lamar runs like a receiver or a RB. Dude makes ELITE cuts that are quite shocking. He’s very very fast, but his agility and making people miss is where he thrives.

Jayden glides. He probably runs a 4.4 but people think he’s runs a 4.7 because it looks like he is jogging. He can’t just straight break your ankles though. He is slippery and then can hit a hole and go

Was with you until the ankle breaking part bc JD did that all the time, just flushing people so hard they'd whiff, dive and fall down without putting a hand on him from point blank range.

I was about to say the same thing about their athleticism. Lamar Jackson might have the best agility of any player in the NFL, on top of being really fast. JD’s game is more around straight line accelerating and speed.

There's a clip out there of him embarrassing a Gump and making him fall down like he's on an AND1 highlight clip that says otherwise.

Lamar also has a canon for an arm. It has not always been accurate, but he has one the stronger arms in the NFL.
