Lamar Jackson said on Monday that he has requested a trade from the Baltimore Ravens as the team "has not been interested in meeting my value" in contract talks.
The star quarterback made the announcement on Twitter, saying he made the request on March 2.
"... I love the game of football and my dream is to help a team win the super bowl," he tweeted, adding that Ravens fans "are great but I had to make a business decision that was best for my family and I. No matter how far I go or where my career takes me, I'll continue to be close to my fans of Baltimore Flock nation and the entire State of Maryland.
