Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey has never been shy about talking about getting his financial due, so perhaps it’s no surprise that he’s considering free agent destinations with two years left on his contract.
Ramsey appeared on the Bussin’ With the Boys podcast, hosted by Tennessee Titans lineman Taylor Lewan and former teammate Will Compton. He told them he’d like to play for either the Titans or the Las Vegas Raiders — and yes, there are financial incentives involved in both.
“It would probably be either here or Vegas,” Ramsey said, via Adam Maya of NFL.com. “I like Vegas. … It’s got no state income tax. Here don’t either.”
Ramsey’s current home state of Florida doesn’t have a state income tax either, but he was dismissive of that being pointed out.
“But we’re thinking about, we were making moves,” Ramsey replied. “And Vegas, you got everything there.”
This is a guy who sent the Jaguars a pretty clear message about his priorities when he showed up to training camp. Ramsey wants to get paid, and you can hardly blame him. Maybe they should be a little worried that he’s apparently been doing his research despite having two years to go in Jacksonville, at least as it currently stands.
