Lamar Jackson

[rmcjacket23]

This isn't official since the deal hasn't been signed, but Peter King has reported some details of Lamar's contract:


Overall the gtd $ at signing is basically what we offered him in Sept, and its pretty clear the injury guarantees are pretty close as well.
Still no news on contract structure, cap hits, etc.

interesting note was the NFLPA wasn't involved in the discussions that ended up with the contract extension.

That's why it got done.

Best combo of weapons and OL he’s had

2019 he had a wall to throw behind and some playmakers but no one to write home about

2021 he had a great receiving corps but his OL barely existed

2022 he had a decent OL and until Bateman went down he looked good

2023 - he has one of the best looking WR groups (health willing) in franchise history to go along with his all-pro TE and a strong OL with great continuity… (and a new OC too)

If we can stay healthy we are definitely a Super Bowl contender this upcoming season. I'm still concerned about corner and pass rush.

So instead of a 6yr, he basically got what they offered in 5?

kind of
but more than just that, it's 135m in new money vs 133m made up of a combination of old and new money

The offense hair is looking pretty smooth ... From what I see, it looks different. I'm liking it so far.

Man his cap hit is 70+ million in 2026

Man his cap hit is 70+ million in 2026

So basically we get 2 years with no Lamar negotiations, then it’s deja vu all over again.

Holy shit. That wasn’t smart. We’ll be back at the table soon

No trade, no tag clause is a big win for him

Nicely done. Alot of us shit on him for no agent, myself included, but he pulled it off well

3 years. 2023-2024-2025 and then restructure in 2026. However I'm sure he won't be looking for fully guaranteed at that point, especially since he has 2 more years left on his contract.
