Lamar Jackson’s long-term future unresolved as Ravens apply non-exclusive tag

• Quarterback unable to reach agreement with Baltimore
• Former MVP could leave if he reaches deal with other team

The Baltimore Ravens announced on Tuesday that they have used their franchise tag on star quarterback Lamar Jackson, although his long-term future remains uncertain.

A source told the Associated Press that the Ravens' tag is non-exclusive. That means Jackson can still talk to other teams. But the Ravens would have a chance to match any agreement between Jackson and another team, and if they choose not to match, they'd receive two first-round draft picks in return for the player. If Jackson plays this season on the franchise tag, he would make $32.4m.
