No roughing the passer for low hit on Lamar Jackson, because he was out of the pocket

Article Summary:
When Browns linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah dove at the legs of Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson and struck him low, injuring Jackson’s ankle, some wondered whether a flag would be thrown for roughing the passer – especially in light of the many roughing flags that have been thrown this season.
In this case no violation arose from the low hit.
