The Baltimore Ravens are reportedly set to franchise-tag Lamar Jackson for the second straight time - a move that could anger their prized asset who made it clear he wants a long-term deal if he is to remain on the team.
It would be the second straight season that Jackson has been tagged, in a move that he has no control over should the team opt to do so - that would keep him with the team for one more season on a higher salary.
Every year, each NFL team has the option to exercise the franchise tag on one player - which allows them to keep a player on its team who is out of contract for an additional year, whilst buying time to negotiate a longer-term contract.
