After 18 seasons as head coach of the Baltimore Ravens, John Harbaugh is reportedly nearing an agreement to become head coach of the New York Giants, taking him from coaching an established quarterback in Lamar Jackson to a relatively inexperienced one in Jaxson Dart.

In early 2023, Jackson had no existing contract. The Ravens, after months of failed negotiations, eventually extended a five-year, $262.5 million offer. It made him, at the time, the highest-paid player in the league, with an annual average of $52.5 million.

The dust has settled on the franchise-altering decision to part with John Harbaugh in Baltimore, but another massive priority remains: extending Lamar Jackson.

The original deal Jackson signed in May 2023 is a five-year, $260 million contract worth $52 million per year. It includes a no-trade clause and protections preventing the Ravens from using a franchise or transition tag when the deal expires after 2027.

It's early, but Baltimore has cast a wide net in its search, and the team has communicated with Lamar Jackson after each interview.

As Steve Bisciotti and Eric DeCosta explained, signing Lamar Jackson to a contract extension would allow the Ravens to address the many needs the team has.

Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti and General Manager Eric DeCosta held their first press conference on Tuesday since the firing of head coach John Harbaugh and the questions about that move involved one about quarterback Lamar Jackson.

Lamar Jackson may be the face of the Baltimore Ravens, but when it comes to picking a new head coach, his power is limited to just offering opinions. The Ravens are now extensively interviewing potential candidates to be their next HC after firing John Harbaugh.
