Lamar Jackson isn’t going anywhere — the superstar quarterback just agreed to a humongous 5-year, $260 million deal to remain with the Baltimore Ravens … making him the highest-paid player in NFL history.
The team announced the news on Thursday … saying they were FINALLY able to reach a number that would satisfy both sides after months of heated negotiation.
Of course, Jackson revealed back in March he had requested a trade out of Baltimore … after the team placed a nonexclusive franchise tag on the former first-round pick.
At the time, Lamar claimed the Ravens were not “interested in meeting my value” … but it’s safe to say that’s no longer the case.
The monster deal includes $185 million in total guaranteed money, according to reports.

Jackson shared his immediate reaction via the Ravens’ Twitter account … saying, “You know, for the last few months, there’s been a lot of he say, she say. A lot of nail biting, a lot of head scratching going on.”
“But for the next five years, there’s a lot of flock going on. Let’s go, baby!!”
Sorry, Jalen Hurts — your reign as highest-paid lasted just a few days. But, at least you have $255 million to use to wipe your tears.
