ESPN has reiterated a report from September that stated that Lamar Jackson is seeking a fully-guaranteed contract.

Citing sources, Jamison Hensley wrote, "Jackson wants a fully guaranteed deal like the one given to Deshaun Watson last year, and the [Baltimore] Ravens have been reluctant to offer that because they believe Watson's deal is more of an outlier than a precedent."

Hensley's report comes a few days after Stephen A. Smith, who also works for ESPN, claimed on air that Jackson never demanded a fully-guaranteed deal. Smith cited a conversation with the quarterback's camp.

The Ravens have until next Tuesday to apply one of the two levels of the franchise tag on Jackson.
