After skipping the Ravens ’off-season volunteer work, quarterback Lamar Jackson showed up at the team’s facilities Monday for a mandatory minicamp. And he says he’s ready to go.
In a short video filmed by Jackson and posted by the Ravens, Jackson said he is excited and willing to get to work.
“What’s going on, guys? I’m back at the king’s castle. I hope you’re ready for the season because I’m sure you will. Let’s do it. Flock Nation, girl,” Jackson said.
But there are still questions about what is happening with Jackson, who is heading into the final year of his rookie contract and has refused to negotiate a new deal with the Ravens. Does Jackson want to leave Baltimore after this season? Are you waiting for the Ravens to offer you the most lucrative contract in NFL history?
Whatever Jackson wants, after battling a mediocre season last year, he will be in a much better bargaining position if he has a strong season in 2022. Both he and the Ravens should expect him to be ready for a big season.
