Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson denied rushing off the field to poop yesterday amid speculation that “cramps” were code for a bathroom emergency.
But it seems that Jackson prefers to do his No. 2’s in one of the five and two half-bathrooms at his $1.3 million mansion in Owings Mills, Md.
“I didn’t pull a Paul Pierce,” said Jackson, referring to the former Boston Celtics star known for a dramatic bathroom break in the 2008 playoffs.
The only photos of Jackson’s bathrooms in the property’s listing show a green-tiled raised bathtub, green-tiled countertops and mismatching black, grey and white-tile trimming.
He paid a discounted $900,000 in cash for the eight-bedroom home in 2018 through his mother’s Florida-based LLC, according to public records. When he was still a rookie, he told ESPN it would be his first purchase on the NFL payroll.
The brick home with nine-foot ceilings has a curved staircase, a two-story foyer, wood floors, huge windows and crown moldings. It has all the luxury finishes, including a recreation room, a gym, a whirlpool hot tub, a private pool and spa, a wet bar, two fireplaces, a breakfast nook, an office, a large patio and a three-car garage.
As a pro-football player, “You get to buy your parents a home,” said Johnson during an interview in 2018.
A local house flipper added $150,000 to the 1996-built property’s value before selling to the Jacksons in 2018 — though they aimed to get closer to $500,000 in profit off the deal, first listing it at $1.2 million. Zillow estimates the home’s current value at $1,338,768.
Only 20 minutes away from the Ravens’ practice facility, the 3.3-acre lot is also home to Lamar’s mother, Felicia Jones, and his brother, Jamar Jackson. It’s a popular neighborhood for Baltimore football players; Former Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco (now a New York Jets quarterback) and Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Torrey Smith previously also lived in the Owings Mills area, according to the Baltimore Sun.
