Lamar Jackson Shows Up To Practice For Ravens, ‘Lifts Everybody Up’ (But Still Won’t Talk Contract)

The Pittsburgh Steelers got their big contract extension of the offseason buttoned up nice and early, completing a new four-year pact with All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrick in the middle of June—a rather unusual time, at least for the organization, to get a deal done.

The Baltimore Ravens, who are much more willing to work around the clock whenever they feel they can hammer out a deal, are sitting and waiting to get theirs done. That would be what would inevitably be a massive new contract for quarterback Lamar Jackson, who, representing himself, has been in no rush.

He didn’t even report to OTAs for the team, which is of course voluntary, but he was back in the building this week for mandatory minicamp.
