Playing Style
The two time MVP is known for his impressive running ability as a quarterback. Amongst the best running quarterbacks in the league, Jackson also posses a strong arm that requires teams to contain him in and his receivers downfield.
The dual-threat player that he is, Jackson might be the shiftiest player in the NFL, making defenders miss tackles without even getting a hand on him. Jackson makes the game look easy with a nonchalant swagger.
Salary and contract
After months of speculation, Jackson put pen to paper on a new five-year $260 million contract with the Baltimore Ravens in April 2023.
$185 million of the contract is guaranteed, while the $52 million-per-year deal makes Jackson the NFL's newest highest-paid player.
