Matt Judon Wants Long-Term Deal
4 years agoBaltimore Ravens defensive end Matt Judon, who received the franchise tag this year, wants to lock down a long-term contract with the team before the July 15 deadline. "I'm happy to be a Raven. I want to stay here for as long as I play, but I understand that it's a business and they kind of have a bad/good problem to have. We have a lot of young talent," Judon said. The pass-rusher signed his franchise tag in late May. Judon had career-highs in sacks (9.5), QB hits (33) and forced fumbles (four) last year, becoming a key leader for a defense ranked in the top five in points and yards allowed per game in 2019. The 27-year-old has the ability to play both defensive end and outside linebacker. He'll make a career-high $16.808 million in 2020 under the franchise tag if no long-term deal is reached. Judon isn't really on the IDP radar as a linebacker, but the Ravens Defense is an easy top-five fantasy target among defenses.
