As Lamar Jackson continues to live in contract purgatory with the Ravens after being tabbed with the non-exclusive franchise tag and requesting a trade from Baltimore, two former Patriots would like to see New England make a call to gauge Jackson’s value in Baltimore.
Chalk up former Patriots safety Devin McCourty and former Patriots linebacker Tedy Bruschi as two who would be in favor of New England getting in the mix for Jackson.
“You have to make a call and see,” McCourty said on ESPN’s Get Up! on Tuesday. “Like if you hear Lamar Jackson is interested in playing on your team … this guy won MVP of the league. He’s one of the rare quarterbacks that you say, ‘He is a guy.’ When he gets out there, he can go change a franchise. So you at least gotta call and say ‘Hey Baltimore, what’s up? What are we talking about here? What is it gonna take?’”
