The NFL world was recently rocked by the news that Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has requested a trade from the team. This news came as a shock to many, as Jackson has been one of the most successful quarterbacks in the league since being drafted in 2018. He has led the Ravens to two consecutive playoff appearances and was named the NFL’s Most Valuable Player in 2019.
Jackson has been vocal about his desire to play in a more pass-friendly offense, and it appears that the Ravens are unwilling to make the changes he desires. This has led to speculation that Jackson is looking for a new team that will give him the opportunity to showcase his passing ability.
The Ravens have not yet responded to Jackson’s request, but they are likely to explore trade options if they cannot reach an agreement with him. There are several teams that could be interested in acquiring Jackson, including the San Francisco 49ers, New England Patriots, and Miami Dolphins. All three teams have the cap space and draft picks to make a deal for Jackson, and they could offer him the opportunity to play in a more pass-friendly system.
Regardless of where Jackson ends up, it’s clear that he is looking for a change of scenery. He has been an integral part of the Ravens’ success over the past few years, and it will be interesting to see how this situation plays out. It’s possible that the Ravens and Jackson will be able to reach an agreement, but if not, there could be a number of teams vying for his services in the near future.
