Who will blame Lamar Jackson for wanting a lot more money in his new contract? He is one of the best quarterbacks in the entire NFL and is looking to enter the top 10 paid.
Basically, Lamar Jackson for several years is looking for a better contract and sat down to talk to the Ravens, but these talks came to nothing.
Desperately, the Ravens tried to lock Lamar Jackson down with the label of playing non-exclusive franchise, but that does not ensure that the Ravens will keep the QB or that the quarterback has the money he is looking for.
But what is Lamar Jackson looking for? Simple, wants to replicate the contract Deshaun Watson received from the Browns and it was all money in the contract, fully guaranteed.
That’s something the Ravens weren’t willing to do and the drama between the two continues, but the only thing for sure is that, Lamar Jackson wants to enter the list of the 10 highest paid QBs in the NFL.
The list of the highest paid quarterbacks and to which Lamar Jackson wants to enter
We will have to explain that contracts in the NFL are somewhat curiousbecause they are divided into some areas in which they have to coincide with the players, in this case with the QB’s.
We resort to Over the Cap to know the numbers of each and every quarterback in the NFL to be able to tell them to the 10 that earn the most money in the entire league, look here Lamar Jackson.
There are several items, such as the total contract and what they earn per year, although it should be noted that the total money of the contract does not mean that they will receive all that money is insured.
That is where an important item enters and it is the of the guaranteed money, which is a part of the total contract and that the QB’s will receive yes or yesplay or not the years they signed in the contract.
Top 10 QB’s with the best salary
| Player | Equipment | Valor total of the contract |
average of profit for year |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aaron Rodgers | Packers | $150,815,000 | $50,271,667 | $150,665,000 |
| Russell Wilson | Broncos | $245,000,000 | $49,000,000 | $165,000,000 |
| Kyler Murray | Cardinals | $230,500,000 | $46,100,000 | $160,000,000 |
| Deshaun Watson | Browns | $230,000,000 | $46,000,000 | $230,000,000 |
| Patrick Mahomes | Chiefs | $450,000,000 | $45,000,000 | $141,000,000 |
| Josh Allen | Bills | $258,000,000 | $43,000,000 | $150,000,000 |
| Matthew Stafford | Rams | $160,000,000 | $40,000,000 | $120,000,000 |
| Dak Prescott | Cowboys | $160,000,000 | $40,000,000 | $126,000,000 |
| daniel jones | Giants | $160,000,000 | $40,000,000 | $104,000,000 |
| Derek Carr | Saints | $150,000,000 | $37,500,000 | $100,000,000 |
Little will move from this list in the remainder of the 2023 low season, because Derek Carr could lose his place in the Top 10, if Lamar Jackson gets the contract he wants.
Besides, Aaron Rodgers would also see a change to his contract if the deal with the Jets goes through. The rest of the QB’s already have their contracts well defined.
