Things starting to get a little weird around Lamar Jackson, who surprisingly has yet to receive any known attention from other teams, much less offers. People have things to say...
Curiouser and curiouser. Apparently somebody who isn't a NFL approved agent was trying to negotiate and find deals for Lamar.

If I had to guess, the guy is probably an overzealous fan of Lamar sticking his nose where it doesn't belong. Kinda like shady boosters causing NCAA violations in college ball.
So, the word is that Lamar has been trying to negotiate with the Ravens and they aren't interested in "meeting his value" as he says, so he has officially requested a trade.

So now, since the Packers and Jets haven't been able to play nice over Aaron Rodgers, suddenly the Jets have another option. Wouldn't it be fucking hilarious after all this drama if the Jets trade for Lamar and leave Rodgers hanging?
EDIT: Meh. Never mind, I guess.
