Lamar Jackson spoke it into existence. And the signing of Jaire Alexander could help spark a Lamar Jackson extension. At a minimum, it can't hurt the Ravens' effort to get a deal done. In 2023, Baltimore's decision to give receiver Odell Beckham $15 million in full guarantees on a one-year deal absolutely helped mend fences with Jackson — and ultimately to get him signed.

After seven years apart, Lamar Jackson and Jaire Alexander will finally team up once again. On Wednesday, the Baltimore Ravens announced the signing of Alexander, a two-time Pro Bowl cornerback who was released by the Green Bay Packers last week.

According to ESPN, Alexander is signing a one-year contract that is worth $6 million. He reportedly turned down more money to reunite with his friend, Jackson. The Ravens quarterback even met Alexander in the team offices to congratulate him as he signed his new contract.
