Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has pivoted in recent weeks from apparently not wanting a long-term deal with the Ravens to apparently wanting one now.

The question arose on Saturday as to whether Jackson would like to get his second NFL contract before the start of training camp.

“Hopefully,” Jackson told Safid Deen of USA Today, during Jackson’s fourth annual Funday with LJ event.

Jackson enters the option year of his rookie deal, at a base salary of roughly $23 million for 2022. He didn’t commit to accepting a new contract before camp starts.

“I’m not going to say ‘yeah’ right now,” Jackson told Deen. “Hopefully. But it’s God’s timing.”
