Lamar Jackson has been in a complete stalemate with his team, the Baltimore Ravens, regarding a new contract extension. The Ravens have non-exclusive franchise tagged the QB, now it’s up to him if he wants to play for the team or not.

However, things are much more complicated as both Jackson and the Ravens have been in contract negotiations since last season and haven’t come to a favourable outcome yet. It’s been many days since the Ravens QB was allowed to converse with other teams for a possible offer. Unfortunately, not a single team has come ahead and offered him a contract. Many analysts and NFL players believe that there is a script in the NFL and there are reports of possible collusion.
