The Baltimore Ravens have put an end to any lingering doubts about the future of their franchise quarterback, Lamar Jackson, by announcing a contract extension that will keep him in Baltimore through the 2026 season. The announcement came as a welcome relief to Ravens fans, who have witnessed the team’s remarkable transformation under Jackson’s leadership. Since taking over as the starting quarterback in 2018, Jackson has led the Ravens to two AFC North titles, an AFC Championship Game appearance, and a near-unprecedented 14-2 record in 2019, a season that culminated in him being named the NFL’s Most Valuable Player.
Jackson’s impact on the Ravens cannot be overstated. His dual-threat ability has revolutionized the offense, making him one of the most exciting players to watch in the NFL. His ability to both run and pass with equal effectiveness has given the Ravens a unique advantage, and his leadership qualities have helped to foster a winning culture within the team. With Jackson now locked in for the foreseeable future, the Ravens can focus on building a team around him that can compete for Super Bowls.
