SALT LAKE CITY – According to Jeff Zrebiec, Senior Staff Writer for The Athletic, the Baltimore Ravens will use the right-of-first-refusal tender on Pro Bowl QB Tyler Huntley.

Of Baltimore’s six restricted free agents, Huntley was seen as the most likely to receive the tender.

The NFL free agency glossary defines the right-of-first-refusal tender as a “one-year contract worth $2.433 million. The team has the right to match any offer sheet signed with another team, but there is no draft compensation tied to this tender.”

The tender is similar to what the Ravens used on star QB Lamar Jackson. The difference is there are two first-round picks tied to the tender used on Jackson.
