Lamar Jackson Confirms Contract Talks Have Taken Place, Doesn’t Know If Holdout Will Be On Table

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was finally in Maryland this past week attending the team’s mandatory minicamp after skipping their OTA sessions—which he told reporters yesterday had nothing to do with his unresolved contract situation and entirely to do with his desire to “just grind”, as he said.

The former league MVP indeed spoke to the media for the first time this offseason, and while he was not very forthcoming at all as far as his contract is concerned, he did say that they have, indeed, had conversations. In fact, whenever he was asked about it, that’s what he would say—that they’re having conversations.
