A week full of Lamar Jackson trade speculation hasn’t disrupted the business as usual approach for the New England Patriots, who are reportedly not expected to pursue the Baltimore Ravens quarterback.
The Boston Sports Journal’s Greg Bedard reported the news on Tuesday, and ESPN’s Mike Reiss doubled down on that report on Friday.

Patriots team sources confirmed what the Boston Sports Journal first reported Tuesday: Barring an unexpected change in plans, Jackson is not a 2023 consideration for the Patriots.
Jackson, a former league MVP, is an electric playmaker that could reshape the franchise at the quarterback position, but he obviously wouldn’t come cheap.
