Lamar Jackson to issue Baltimore Ravens pre-season snub amid contract stand-off

The 26-year-old and the Ravens have been unable to agree to new terms, and so the NFL outfit put a non-exclusive franchise tag on the quarterback, allowing the player to negotiate with other teams but Baltimore will have the opportunity to match the offer on the table. Jackson also revealed last month that he had requested a trade away from the Ravens at the start of March.

Baltimore has brought in one of Jackson’s friends, free agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr, but reports suggest they’ll have to get DeAndre Hopkins as well to help rebuild bridges with their star player.
