The last year has been extremely lucrative for some of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. Deshaun Watson of the Houston Texans was given a contract worth close to $40 million per year, all while Patrick Mahomes of the Chiefs was given a ten-year deal worth half a billion dollars. Needless to say, if you're a superstar quarterback, you're going to get paid very well, which means Lamar Jackson of the Baltimore Ravens can expect a deal, as well.

In fact, during a recent interview with the media, Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta spoke about giving Jackson a contract and whether or not it will happen anytime soon. As he explained, Jackson has been nothing short of a superstar, and they want him to be with the team for the rest of the decade.

"There's certainly a chance of that. He has played phenomenal football over the last couple years. He deserves a contract. Our intention & my intention is to keep him in Baltimore for many, many years," DeCosta said.

These comments suggest that Jackson should be getting a massive contract very soon although it still remains to be seen what the amount will be. Keep it locked to HNHH, as we will be sure to bring you all of the latest information related to Jackson and the rest of the NFL.
