Lamar Jackson is having a really hard time with the Baltimore Ravens. After the AFC North team decided to put the non-exclusive franchise tag on him, now they want to reconcile with the quarterback by giving him a new wide receiver for the 2023 NFL season.

With this move, Jackson is set to bthe 2023 season with Baltimore, unless he finds a team willing to pay two-first round picks for him. If that doesnāt happen, the Ravens are ready to make him feel comfortable by giving him a new target on the field.
