Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, who has one year remaining on his current deal, isn't "in any rush at all" to sign a new contract, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said Thursday.
"There's a couple reasons. We have seen, and this is just my read on the situation from all the information I know, we've seen players, Kirk Cousins is one, Dak Prescott is another, use the franchise tag and the sort of shoulder shrug of 'maybe I'm not quite ready to do a deal yet' to use it as a weapon to maximize their contract leverage.
