The 2019 NFL MVP earned all 50 first-place votes, making him only the second unanimous MVP in NFL history, joining former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who is now with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Jackson led the NFL with 36 passing touchdowns. He threw for 3,127 yards while adding seven trips to the end zone on the ground.
Jackson's 1,206 rushing yards broke the single-season record for a quarterback.
The Pompano Beach-born former Boynton Beach Community High School star won the 2016 Heisman Trophy while at Louisville and landed in Baltimore with the last pick in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
Jackson, who turned 23 in January, is the youngest quarterback to win the MVP award since the 1970 NFL merger.
"Madden NFL 21" will be released Aug. 28.
