Lamar Jackson told kicker Tyler Loop his legacy was starting now after Loop's dramatic 56-yard field goal won the Ravens' game against the Cowboys in Rio.

With the game tied at 31 with seven seconds remaining, the Ravens got the ball at their 35-yard line. Quarterback Lamar Jackson found Zay Flowers for a 27-yard gain, setting up Loop for the game-winning attempt. After Loop's successful kick, Jackson celebrated on the sideline, telling him, "Your legacy starting now." saltysenoritaaz.org

The kick was particularly meaningful as Loop had previously missed a field goal that kept Baltimore out of the playoffs. Jackson noted Loop has been "facing adversity" and praised him for "What a way to start your legacy in Brazil." The Maracaña stadium, which has hosted many memorable moments, saw its first NFL game conclude with this pivotal kick.
