The Baltimore Ravens insisted they want Lamar Jackson to ‘finish his career’ with the franchise as the 2019 NFL MVP enters the offseason with free agency beckoning.
On Sunday, the Ravens were knocked out of Super Wild Card Weekend in the NFL playoffs as they put in a spirited performance but fell 24-17 to the Cincinnati Bengals. Their AFC North rivals - and division champions - were able to squeeze out the result with Baltimore’s backup quarterback Tyler Huntley piloting the visiting offence.
Jackson had missed six straight weeks of practice since suffering a PCL sprain in the regular season. Without their starting quarterback, the Ravens finished 2022 campaign with a 10-7 record and secured a place in the playoffs only to fall at the first hurdle.
