Yesterday the Baltimore Ravens used the non-exclusive franchise tag on Lamar Jackson. This means that Lamar’s salary is $32 million compared to the exclusive tag of $45 million. It also means that other teams can now negotiate with Lamar on a contract. If Lamar were to sign one of those offer sheets, the Ravens would have five days to match that offer and keep Lamar. If the Ravens decide to not match an offer for Lamar, the team that signs the quarterback would send two first-round picks to the Ravens in compensation and keep Lamar. Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe react.
