Falcons 'Overwhelming' Trade Destination for Ravens' Lamar Jackson?
In this story:
The contract negotiations between the Baltimore Ravens and their star quarterback Lamar Jackson are one of the biggest stories of the offseason.
Their inability to come to an agreement on an extension has many wondering what it will mean for the future of their partnership. Since coming into the NFL, Jackson has quickly become one of the league's most electrifying signal-callers.
With things looking to be heading towards a franchise tag, many are wondering if Jackson would play on the tag or seek a trade away from Baltimore. The Atlanta Falcons have been named as a possible trade partner.
According to The 33rd Team, the Falcons are still considered the favorite.
"I asked a few people where they want to see Jackson next season, and the overwhelming answer: the Atlanta Falcons," The 33rd Team said.
Despite the recent assertion of confidence from Ravens' head coach John Harbaugh, there is still uncertainty regarding the future of Jackson.
If the Falcons can land Jackson, it would answer their question marks at quarterback after trading away Matt Ryan an offseason ago.
Atlanta already has a young foundation in place offensively centered around their running game, which saw the emergence of rookie back Tyler Allgeier, giving the Falcons another option aside from Cordarrelle Patterson.
