According to a Sunday report that has ignited controversy among NFL fans and amateur economists, the Baltimore Ravens gave quarterback Lamar Jackson a larger contract than Kyler Murray's five-year, $230 million deal in Arizona. During Sunday's Baltimore Ravens-Cardinals preseason broadcast, Fox Sports' Jay Glazer reported that Baltimore is more able to pay the 2019 MVP more than Murray's new five-year deal with the Cardinals, which includes a $160 million guarantee. The Deshaun Watson contract with the Cleveland Browns, which is fully guaranteed and could be used by Jackson to determine his own worth, is among the complexing issues, Glazer said. According to Glazer, Jackson, who represents himself, and the Ravens face a 'uphill battle' before deciding on a contract. Of course, Jackson said he'd step away from the negotiating table when the regular season starts in two weeks, so the clock is ticking.
