Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said, 'We love ,' in his press conference Monday at the NFL's annual meeting, when asked for a response to Jackson's trade announcement. Jackson announced Monday via his personal Twitter account that he requested a trade from the Ravens on March 2. Jackson is in Baltimore for the long haul after his contract saga ended at the end of April with a five-year, $260 million agreement. The 26-year-old QB completed 66.1 percent of his throws for 7.8 YPA and a league-high 9.0 percent TD rate back in 2019, so it isn't out of the question to make up for a dip in rushing stats with improvements in both passing volume and efficiency.

The Ravens hope Monken can help guide Jackson from good to great as a passer, but it might mean fewer of the rush attempts that fantasy managers find so valuable. Monken then opened up UGA's offense, culminating last year with QB Stetson Bennett compiling 4,128 passing yards, 27 pass TDs and 10 rushing TDs. The new coordinator, Monken, spent four seasons with Tampa Bay (2016-18) and Cleveland (2019) in the same role and oversaw offenses that attempted 36.1, 37.8, 39.1 and 33.7 passes per game (Jackson's never averaged more than 31.8). It's not exactly a secret, after the Ravens parted ways with long-time, run-first OC Greg Roman and added WRs Odell Beckham and Zay Flowers. Jackson said Thursday that he expects 'less running and more throwing' under new offensive coordinator Todd Monken, 's Jamison Hensley reports.
