On Lamar Jackson's contract, all options are on the table for Ravens (NBC Sports)

The situation between the Ravens and quarterback Lamar Jackson came to a head this week. After the season, the relationship could explode. Or implode.

And perhaps make it more likely that Jackson will tell the Ravens he wants out. Or will it be less? But Watson created leverage, by telling the Texans he didn’t want to play for them again, by having them agree to trade him, and by working the various options to the point at which the Browns offered a package that most other teams won’t. Will it be more? The situation between the Ravens and quarterback Lamar Jackson came to a head this week. After the season, the relationship could explode.

Lamar Jackson contract status: Where negotiations with Ravens QB ... (Sporting News)

The 2019 NFL MVP has played the final year of his rookie contract. Will he sign a new contract with the Ravens ahead of the 2023 season?

Jackson and the Ravens were unable to come to terms on a new contract before the start of the 2022 season. 11 that Baltimore offered Jackson a contract with more guaranteed money than the contracts for Russell Wilson ($124 million) and Kyler Murray ($103.3 million). It's not an ideal situation for Jackson, who wants a fully guaranteed long-term contract, or the team, which wants to secure the future of its franchise. Here is what you need to know on the Lamar Jackson contract situation in [#Baltimore], how team leaders for the [#49ers]have Trey Lance’s back as the starter, & a scare in [#Dallas]with Dak Prescott that was avoided. The biggest hangup in negotiations was that Jackson wanted fully guaranteed money on par with the $230 million Deshaun Watson received from the Browns. Of course, the Ravens reportedly did not want to offer more guaranteed money. The site added that those estimates are based on the top five cap hits among quarterbacks in 2023 when the restricted tender period ends on April 20, 2023. He is in line to become one of the highest-paid players in the league. The average annual value (AAV) of the deal was $2.36 million. Baltimore certainly would love to delay those talks for as long as possible, as that would indicate a deep run in the NFL playoffs. His next possible return window would be the divisional round — assuming Baltimore wins at Cincinnati. the Bengals on Sunday.

Samuel Njoku: Ravens Need Lamar Jackson & More Weapons (Sports Illustrated)

BALTIMORE — The Ravens' season came to an end on Sunday after they fell to the Cincinnati Bengals 24-17 in the Wild Card round of the NFL playoffs.

If this season told the Ravens organization anything, it’s that it must do everything in their power to retain the services of Lamar Jackson. Steve Bisciotti and Eric DeCosta failed to sign Lamar Jackson to a long-term deal this past offseason. This move severely diminished the depth at the position (which was already low) and placed a magnitude of pressure on Rashod Bateman who only played 6 games due to a foot injury. The Ravens will have a difficult time getting over this loss but must quickly turn their attention to their star quarterback. For years, it has been evident that the Ravens lack talent at wide receiver. The passing game did not improve as red zone deficiencies defined the season for a team with Super Bowl aspirations.

Report: Ravens Still View Lamar Jackson as QB1, Will Franchise ... (Bleacher Report)

There is more clarity on Lamar Jackson's situation going forward as the Baltimore Ravens prepare for the offseason.

Jackson will ultimately be able to point to the team's record without him as evidence of his value in contract negotiations. The Ravens were 8-4 with him on the field, and no surprises there. Which means, to me, a significant likelihood that the Ravens may use the non-exclusive franchise tag for Jackson. I think it's going to be hard for Jackson to get a long-term contract without significant protection for the team. From @GMFB: What's next for #Ravens QB Lamar Jackson? pic.twitter.com/ax4Kc7x1oM

Should Ravens give Lamar Jackson a new contract? Pros, cons of ... (Sporting News)

Lamar Jackson wasn't available for the Ravens' final six games of the 2022 season, through Sunday night's 24-17 AFC wild-card playoff loss at the Bengals.

Should the Ravens go in this direction, Jackson being on the open market could put in a motion a lot of QB change. A high-end investment in Jackson would mean the Ravens need him to stay healthy to maximize the returns. It's not usual for a team to move on from a one-time MVP young QB before his second contract, but the Ravens would be the one organization that can pull it off and recover well. There was no point to risk further injury with his future and that of the Ravens also in the balance. Jackson has missed a total of 11 games including playoffs the past two years. Adding all that up, there's every expectation the Ravens will sign Jackson to a long-term contract.

Lamar Jackson landing spots: Jets, Patriots among best fits if he ... (Sporting News)

Baltimore and its franchise quarterback could part ways in the offseason. Here are some possible destinations if he leaves.

New England has the cap space to make an extension for Jackson work, and it has found success in the rushing attack with Rhamondre Stevenson and Damien Harris. Jones turned in a resurgent performance for the playoff-bound Giants this year, but Jackson no doubt would fit their system. The Falcons have the cap space to ensure Jackson becomes the team's franchise quarterback. But if Jackson is available through trade or happens to become a free agent, the Jets would appear to be the best fit for him given how close they are to Super Bowl contention and the talented offensive weapons he'd have around him. But even if he is tagged, he could still force a trade, or Baltimore might decide it would be in its best interest to move on from him and start looking toward the future. The Falcons have the No. Should Baltimore use the non-exclusive tag, another team could offer him a contract, though the Ravens would have the chance to match. If Baltimore was nervous about offering him a fully guaranteed extension before the 2022 season, it might have little reason to feel differently in 2023. Jackson became eligible for a contract extension prior to the start of the 2021 season, but he did not reach an agreement with the team. [According to Spotrac](https://twitter.com/spotrac/status/1567215195843428353?lang=en), the exclusive franchise tag would cost $45.4 million in 2023. [According to ESPN's Chris Mortensen](https://twitter.com/mortreport/status/1568914638552682496), Jackson was offered a six-year deal that would have fully guaranteed him $133 million and could have earned him more than $290 million, but the guarantee was well below what he was hoping to receive. [Over the Cap projects](https://overthecap.com/franchise-transition-and-rfa-tenders) the non-exclusive tag to be $32.445 million.
