Heading into the NFL offseason, the Baltimore Ravens seemed to be in danger of losing superstar quarterback Lamar Jackson, who had some contract demands that the team simply wasn’t willing to meet.
At one point, it surfaced that Jackson had actually told the franchise to trade him if they weren’t willing to pay his asking price, which was more about guaranteed money than anything else.
Things got so bad in Baltimore that it seemed like only a matter of time before the Ravens would be forced to trade their face of the franchise and get as much as they could in return, which would essentially start a rebuilding process in Baltimore.
However, in a drastic turn of events, Jackson finally put pen to paper on a new deal, and everything was all good in Baltimore, and he was recently seen making his way into training camp, via the team’s Twitter account.

Ironically enough, the Ravens have gone from potential disaster in potentially losing Jackson to becoming a legitimate title contender in the highly competitive AFC.
Before Jackson officially signed his new deal with the team, the Ravens went out and signed superstar wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. to join an already promising receiving corps in Baltimore.
As if that wasn’t enough of a drastic improvement on offense, Baltimore landed one of the most talented receivers in the 2023 NFL Draft by selecting Zay Flowers out of Boston College to pair with Beckham in the passing game.
Jackson returns to a revamped team that could have arguably the best offense in the NFL.
