Mike Florio of NBC Sports and Pro Football Talk will not let the idea go that the Washington Commanders are lying in the weeds, waiting to make a move for Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson.
Florio’s logic is that owner Daniel Snyder, in one last act of defiance before he sells the team, signs Jackson to an offer sheet with a fully guaranteed five-year contract, leaving the next owner to foot the bill. And, in the process, angering the rest of the 30 NFL owners [subtracting Cleveland owner Jimmy Haslam] for handing out a fully-guaranteed multi-year deal. Haslam drew the ire of his fellow owners last year for the deal he gave Deshaun Watson.
