Crafting a “Poison Pill” Type Contract Offer For Lamar Jackson

I thought I would have a little fun with making up a strategy that would maybe allow a team to make a contract offer to Ravens QB Lamar Jackson that the Ravens would have a difficult time matching despite a low salary cap hit this year. The NFL has all kinds of rules about franchise tag offers and what can and can not be included so who knows they may have some hidden line in the CBA that doesn’t allow this or an interpretation of the contract that would not allow it but I figure it’s a fun exercise anyway.
