The Ravens are likely to use a franchise tag designation on their QB today. That will force GM Eric DeCosta into a series of corresponding moves to make Jackson’s new contract fit under the cap.
Richardson spent only two years in the NFL before launching a successful career in the restaurant business. He later founded the Carolina Panthers, but his reign ended amid a front-office scandal.
The uncertainty over Ravens QB Lamar Jackson’s contract “does kind of create a little bit of a haze as to what the future’s going to look like,” Eric DeCosta said.
With the Ravens facing a financial squeeze as they decide on Lamar Jackson’s future, general manager Eric DeCosta said Campbell’s future would be part of a “tough decision.”
Ravens GM Eric DeCosta said Wednesday that “we’ve got four, five or six different plans based on what happens over the next 10 days” with Lamar Jackson.
