BALTIMORE, MD — Ray Lewis wants to come out of retirement — just to play with Lamar Jackson. The two-time Super Bowl champion and Hall of Famer said in an appearance on SHOWTIME’s "Inside the NFL" he had told Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti he would get back in the game to play with the two-season quarterback.

"I told [Ravens owner] Steve [Bisciotti] the other night in the box, 'You know I still got two quarters in me. I can come play with LJ [Lamar Jackson],'" Lewis said. "If you all are holding the ball for seven minutes on a drive, and then nine minutes on a drive, I’m like 'Man, I’ve never had that in my career.'"
