On February 20, the two-week window for NFL clubs to designate Franchise or Transition tags on players has opened. This mightily involves the Baltimore Ravens as they expectantly hope to keep interior defensive lineman Justin Madubuike.
According to overthecap.com, the tag price for Madubuike would be $20.2 million, a seismic pay increase from his rookie deal that totaled $5.23 million over four years. But, after his development and production hit incredible heights, it’s appearing as the move is in the best interest of the team if they cannot strike a long-term deal in the next two weeks.
