The BALTIMORE SUN examines whether or not Ravens QB Lamar Jackson "could negotiate a megadeal without an agent." Jackson was considered an "unconventional player ahead of the 2018 draft." Also unconventional "was his representation: His mother, Felicia Jones, served as his manager." He said that he had "enlisted a lawyer to review contracts." But at no point during the predraft process did he "hire an agent." Now, as the Ravens "work toward an extension with Jackson, there is little doubt he’ll sign the richest contract in franchise history." But the "framework of a franchise-altering megadeal will depend in part on who’s negotiating it."
