The connection between a quarterback and his center is crucial to a team's success.
And Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson and center Tyler Linderbaum have a truly unmatched bond. That was further proved with the most wholesome video posted by the team on Wednesday as the players reunited for OTAs.
In the video, Jackson went right over to Linderbaum, high-fiving him, giving him a chest bump, and finishing it off with a huge hug.

Linderbaum then gave an update, saying he has not had any conversations about a possible contract extension.
"Honestly, I'm really not even focused on that right now," Linderbaum said on April 21. "I'm giving my all to the team right now, and that's my focus, and that's how it should be."
