Lamar Jackson is pushing back on the notion that he wants to leave the Baltimore Ravens.

The 2019 NFL MVP on Wednesday tweeted that he loves the team and lashed out at a "false narrative" surrounding his playing future with the Ravens. 

"I love my Ravens I don't know who the hell putting that false narrative out that I'm having thoughts about leaving stop tryna read my mind," Jackson wrote.

His comments quickly drew a response from Ravens' All-Pro tackle Ronnie Stanley and recently retired safety Anthony Levine Sr., who spent 10 seasons with Baltimore. 

While it's unclear what provoked Jackson’s comments on social media, they came a day after Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti discussed negations regarding the quarterback's contract at the NFL league meetings in Florida. 

Bisciotti reiterated that the team was committed to signing its star quarterback to a long-term deal, despite Jackson reportedly being slow to engage with general manager Eric DeCosta in contract talks.

Bisciotti said he didn't expect Jackson to sign an extension before this season unless the quarterback "has a change of heart." He described Jackson's decision to wait as "unique as hell," ESPN reported.
