Lamar Jackson is officially a rich man.
The Baltimore Ravens announced Tuesday that they had officially inked the 2016 Heisman Trophy winner to a four-year contract with an option for a fifth year. The contract is worth a total of $9,471,649 with a $4,968,472 signing bonus.
Not bad.
Officially a Raven.

As it turned out, Jackson using his mom as his agent wound up not being such a big deal.
Congrats to Lamar. You earned every penny.
