The Baltimore Ravens are at an impasse in their negotiations with MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson. After months of speculation and reports of stalled talks between the two parties, Jackson took to Twitter to set the record straight, though his statement raises more questions than answers for the Ravens and their fans.
In his explanation of the current situation, Jackson says he requested a trade on March 2, which was before the Ravens tagged him. He’s left no doubt about his desire to leave Baltimore to play for another team next season. Though the Ravens seem to have the leverage to bring him back, these latest developments paint a grim picture for the team, which is looking to cement itself as a serious Super Bowl contender in 2023.
