Jackson is in his ninth season with the Ravens, and the dream of an exciting era having a satisfying conclusion might be fading fast.

Jackson's future with Ravens increasingly uncertain amid injury, age, contract stalemate, and character concerns.

The source frames Jackson's future with the Ravens as increasingly uncertain and complicated. Jackson is in his ninth season with the Ravens with one year left on a five-year, $260 million contract extension; multiple media reports indicate no recent contract negotiations have occurred. Jackson will turn 30 in January, and injuries are becoming a significant part of his story. Given his reliance on mobility, his game might not age well into his 30s. A scathing piece by the Baltimore Sun after last season reshaped the Jackson narrative, painting him as difficult to work with. If this season goes south, a divorce between Jackson and the Ravens seems increasingly likely next offseason.
