Lamar Jackson is encouraged by what he has seen from Dez Bryant on social media amid reports the former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver is in Baltimore for a tryout with the Ravens.

Bryant, a three-time Pro Bowler who led the NFL in receiving touchdowns in 2014, has not played a snap since the 2017 season.

He signed with the New Orleans Saints in November 2018 but suffered a torn Achilles in practice after just two days with the team.

The 31-year-old said this month on Twitter that he just wants "a chance" and it appears league MVP Jackson would have no issue with the Ravens handing him that opportunity.

"We've got a lot of great receivers on the team right now," Jackson said on Tuesday.

"It's up to the front office. I've been seeing Dez Bryant on Instagram and stuff like that, running his routes, competing against cornerbacks.

"He's looking pretty good on social media. If the front office likes him, we'll have to see when he gets here."

The Ravens are inexperienced at the receiver position. They drafted Marquise Brown in the first round and Miles Boykin in the third round of last year's draft and added the third-round selection of Devin Duvernay and the sixth-round pick of James Proche in 2020.

Jackson has been impressed with the effort that group is showing to this point in training camp.

"They're workaholics right now," Jackson added. "It's just the second day. We're just going to have to keep stacking."
