PALM BEACH, Fla. — The next time Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson signs a contract, it’s going to be top value, John Harbaugh predicted. When that happens is still up in the air, but Harbaugh confirmed at the NFL’s annual owners meeting that conversations with Jackson are on-going. “There’s been conversations about that internally I know,” Harbaugh said. “How far along that is, I don’t know.”In 2023, Jackson signed a five-year, $260 million contract that reset the market for quarterbacks.
