Jackson has stated that he will host all contracts once the regular season begins.

Jackson told reporters he had a tough deadline for talks.

[{"selector":"#anim-8c1461e1-59d7-4357-acac-d0b2771d25dd [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-12.514648210040342%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e82d164b-5587-43a7-a34a-f514637e8489","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4e26cefd-c172-4030-bb10-3207ee57ed30","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(116.39871%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image Credit: Google.com

Jackson also said that he and the Ravens are still discussing a contract,

[{"selector":"#anim-7e805c03-929a-4ed1-adc1-79098e821603 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-17.394282887887876%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8f5cfc49-4981-43ef-81d8-b9d802842a1c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d5519adc-207e-45d4-b4aa-e90c6edbac2b","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(116.39871%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image Credit: Google.com

so there is a chance that a deal will be struck within the next couple of days.

The former league MVP did not say whether progress had been made on the expansion yet,

although a recent report expressed "pessimism" around the talks.
