BALTIMORE — With Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson declining to talk Wednesday about his suspended contract talks — “I’m focused on the Dolphins now,” he told reporters — his last public comments on the matter this year could, appropriately enough, be about the issue of guaranteed money.
After Sunday’s season-opening win over the New York Jets, a reporter asked Jackson whether he’d turned down an offer of a “$250 million guaranteed contract.”
“Fully guaranteed?” Jackson asked, grinning. “No. No, there’s no truth to that.” His postgame news conference ended there, and Jackson returned to the Ravens’ locker room.
