Selected for the 2018 Hall of Fame class, Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis is of course in attendance at this year’s Hall of Fame Game.
With that said, Lewis was interviewed for a few minutes, cutting into the Ravens’ first drive featuring rookie quarterback Lamar Jackson. Unfortunately, those few moments were just a few too many for those watching and wanting to see Jackson.
Twitter obviously was done with Lewis’ gift of gab and let him have it.

Ray Lewis hijacked Lamar Jackson’s first preseason drive to cover for his boy Joe Flacco you can’t tell me otherwise.

Ray Lewis talking through the entirety of Lamar Jackson’s debut series was not my idea of a good time

Came to see #LamarJackson's first snap but had to listen to #Raylewis instead suck all the oxygen out of the moment. #HallofFameGame

Ray Lewis is that guy you don't want to run into at the grocery store because he'll talk at you for 30 minutes in the bread aisle

Between Ray Lewis and Tony Dungy, I’m beginning to think NBC severely miscalculated what people would want to see in a football game featuring HEISMAN TROPHY WINNER LAMAR JACKSON
