Lamar Jackson‘s contract drama has taken some very wild turns in this off-season. Now there is a new update. Rich Eisen, an American sportscaster, has weighed in on the possibility of the QB?joining another team. Eisen believes that any team in the NFL, which has a first-round selection in the upcoming drafts, can negotiate a contract for Jackson’s services and send it to Baltimore, who can then match it. And Eisen has also brought out some of the franchises which can use the QB’s services.

If Baltimore does not match the offer, the interested team gets Jackson and gives up its two top picks in this year’s and next year’s drafts.

Eisen first listed the teams that are not in the market for a quarterback, including the Bengals, Buffalo Bills, LA Chargers, and the Jaguars. He also listed teams that have made maneuvers since Lamar Jackson received the non-exclusive franchise tag, including the Seahawks, Giants, Saints, Raiders, Buccaneers, Falcons, and Panthers. Eisen thinks that the chances of these teams making a move for Lamar are slim, especially since some of these teams have already made significant quarterback acquisitions.

Rich Eisen breaks down which teams are most likely to reach out to the former NFL MVP. While many teams are out of the mix, there are still eight teams, as per Eisen, that could blow everyone’s mind if they actually made a move and called Lamar. But, as the analyst points out, the situation is not that simple.
