indeed they wouldn't be wise to do so -- the difference between the fully-guaranteed 5th yr option now (25M) and the non-exclusive franchise tag next yr (around 35M) makes it a no-brainer to wait and see what he does in arthur smith's offense. if he takes off at some point and becomes the clear starter, they can just follow the ravens/lamar jackson blueprint then.
