Will Lamar Jackson not receive a full guarantee?

PFF’s Ari Meirov mentioned via Twitter, “If Lamar Jackson wants a fully guaranteed contract like Deshaun Watson… Russell Wilson and Kyler Murray not coming close to doing the same did not help him. Would imagine Baltimore’s front office is hammering that home now in negotiations. Watson’s deal has been an outlier.”

Ex-agent Joel Curry also stated that Wilson damages Jackson’s chances of landing a fully guaranteed deal. The Ravens will argue that Deshaun Watson’s agreement is an exception, more like Kirk Cousins’ was in 2018.
