It was known all throughout the 2023 offseason that the Baltimore Ravens wanted quarterback Lamar Jackson to stay with the team for a long time. Head coach John Harbaugh and general manager Eric DeCosta would talk about their long-term visions of Jackson at the helm of their offense at every opportunity, and wouldn’t hesitate to name the former Louisville star as their quarterback.
Jackson was asked about Harbaugh and DeCosta always wanting him back with the team, and showed his appreciation for their unwavering support. He said it meant a lot to him that his head coach and general manager believed in him, making clear his gratitude for both.
