Lamar Jackson's talents appear to extend much further than just the football field.

The 28-year-old Ravens QB will reportedly be making his acting debut in an upcoming episode of "Power Book III: Raising Kanan" Season 4 which Jackson teased in an Instagram post on Friday.

"I'm so excited for fans to see me in this new role and thrilled to be a part of 'Power Book III: Raising Kanan,'" the two-time MVP shared. "My character, E-Tone is a deadly, dangerous character- you don't want to get on his bad side!"

Lamar has been a fan of the series for a while now. Posting to X in 2023 about how much he enjoyed watching it and that he wanted to be a part of the show at some point.

"Raising Kanan so Gas," the four-time Pro Bowler said at the time. "I wanna be in a few episodes," he laughed.

Rapper 50 Cent, the producer of the "Power" series, also made sure to hype up Jackson's appearance with a post of his own. Saying, "Yes I'm turning it up notch! Lamar Jackson tonight in Raising Kanan we sucker free! ... BOOM."

Jackson's cameo will be available to stream on Starz and could be the first of many on-camera appearances once his playing career is over.

If he's anywhere near as compelling as Jerry Jones was in the TV drama "Landman," the future could be bright for Baltimore's superstar signal-caller.
