Baltimore Ravens

According to a former NFL executive and a pair of former players, the nonexclusive franchise tag for Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson creates a unique set of circumstances not only for contract negotiations but the locker room dynamic and team strategy.

With no news from quarterback Lamar Jackson or the Ravens as free agency kicked off Wednesday, here's a look at potential suitors for the 2019 NFL Most Valuable Player.

The Ravens re-signed safety Geno Stone, who started seven games and played in all 17 last season, to a one-year deal on Thursday, while also bringing back second-team All-Pro long snapper Nick Moore.

Chuck Clark, a 2017 sixth-round pick out of Virginia Tech, became a starter at safety in 2019 and played almost every defensive snap for the Ravens each of the past three seasons.

The Ravens placed a right of first refusal tender on Tyler Huntley on Wednesday, meaning another team can sign the quarterback to an offer sheet but the team doesn't get any compensation if they don't match it.

Running back Justice Hill is returning to the Ravens' backfield next season after signing a two-year deal on Wednesday.

Cornerback Trayvon Mullen, whom the Ravens claimed off waivers at the end of last season, has agreed to a one-year deal to return to Baltimore.

Ravens star quarterback Lamar Jackson broke his silence on contract negotiations with the team Tuesday, tweeting a response to an ESPN report about how much money was guaranteed in an offer in September.
