Last offseason, there weren't any other teams that made a major push to sign Lamar Jackson and only a couple who appear to have expressed mild interest in signing the star quarterback to an offer sheet. The two teams known to have inquired about Jackson's services were the Las Vegas Raiders and Carolina Panthers, but neither team got overly aggressive with Jackson and neither came close to signing him to an offer sheet that the Ravens would have had a chance to match. The unsettled situation surrounding Jackson last offseason has bled into this season, with some sources around the league still wondering why there wasn't more of an effort to sign the player now in position to win the MVP.
