I believe that Jesus did baptize, as the Bible says that the husband an that labors must be first partakers of the fruit. He can’t actively preach something and then don’t partake in that ourselves, as He had to be an example unto them first as to what they should do.
As far as I know, there are two incidents were it talks about Jesus baptizing. One says that Jesus took his disciples to the river, and baptized, another says that Jesus baptized not, but his disciples. Due to that, I think the second scripture is saying that Jesus baptized no one, but his disciples, or that Jesus only baptized his disciples.
