The oddity surrounding the free agency of Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson intensified when the NFL warned teams not to negotiate an offer sheet for the former league MVP with a noncertified agent supposedly representing Jackson.
The Indianapolis Colts have been mentioned as being possibly interested in signing Jackson to an offer sheet. But after several teams initially were reported not to be interested in attempting to sign Jackson, DeMaurice Smith, the NFLPA’s executive director, raised the possibility that teams might be acting improperly, in violation of the CBA.“Why did [Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk] Cousins and Watson get fully guaranteed contracts while others didn’t?” Smithon the union’s website.
Smith wrote that team owners “have colluded in the past to both depress and restrict markets” and said that “[t]his time, they are criminally gaming the game itself.” The CBA, however, says that teams can be found guilty of collusion only with evidence of them conspiring improperly, not based merely on a lack of contract offers and the skill of the player involved.
