Give the man a break, he's still on his rookie contract and is buying 8-12 Rolexes. He can't spend Sub money 😁

Given the amount of dirty work these guys do for an (admirably spectacular) QB, it’s a nice gesture of him. Doesn’t even compare though to the Royal Oak 15202s that Bruno Mars gifted his “offensive line” last year. Guess Jackson’s still on his rookie contract—and he may have to treat some more offensive lines in the years to come 😉

One thing is for certain, if he continues to play like this his eventual contract in 2-3 years will be mindblowing.

Well ... he did get a $5M signing bonus. 😗

Lamar lookin at cool $40-45 million a year probably. The athletic skill pro athletes have is mind blowing.

The money in pro sports is even more mindblowing. Should you really get paid that much to run around after a ball? This world is crazy

If he stays healthy and has another great year in 2020, then I think he would be on track for that amount when it comes time for his extension. Mahomes' extension will be the model obviously, and I think it will probably top $40M/year in the out-years. We'll see.

He takes an awful lot of hits running as much as he does. He should ask his backup (RG3) how that worked out if he wants to play for a few more contracts

Might want to review his play....if you watched all the snaps as I have you will see he he runs smart and avoids contact when possible. But yes, if he gets injured my team is doomed in the playoffs, lol.

I thought they had spending caps, and if a teams cap money is on average $55-65M after dead money how can he make that much?

Overthecap.com gives you all the info on NFL teams and free agency, cap space etc etc.

$200 million is the cap for 2020. Baltimore will have $51 mi is cap space and only $1.3 in dead money.

Agree. Harbaugh needs to take better care of him but it is probably easier said than done. But if he i injured seriously and needs a season off the magic could be gone for good 🙁

With that money, the entire offense should've gotten Rolexes.

With that money he should be able to have the Rolex shop get him the SS sports models

He bought all of those Rolex's so that now he can get himself a SS sports model. 😝 And not being bothered to resell them, he just gave them to his O line.

But kidding aside, outside of a lot of top linemen, they don't make quite the flashy salary of a QB, so it's a great gesture. I hope Rolex game him some extra bracelet links, as I can imagine those dudes would have big wrists.

Completely agree. Again, Lamar obviously has a lucrative career ahead of him....but the gesture is excellent to see from the leader of the team.

^^Disclaimer: VERY biased Ravens fan. The shitty qbs I have had to suffer though makes me think of Lamar as a member of my family at this point, lol.

Come on Joe Flacco wasn’t that bad. Top this list

Here are bad QB’s
Ryan Lindley
Drew Stanton
Tom Tupa
John Navvarre
John Skelton
Stoney Case

I’ll end with Stoney, Stoney kinda indicates our quality control here in Cardinal land
