Written permission would have to be granted by the Ravens for Jackson to legally talk to other teams because Baltimore would hold his exclusive rights.
Jackson would probably be allowed to negotiate a contract with serious suitors while the Ravens figured out the trade compensation with those teams."

I don't think the Ravens want Lamar back. He's expensive, and they just cut the OC who designed the offense around Lamar's skillset. If they planned on keeping Lamar, they would have kept Roman. On the flip side, I think Lamar wants to go to the NFC. If he stays in the AFCN, he has to compete against Burrow and Watson and Pickett every year for the division, and the rest of the AFC, including Mahomes, Herbert, Allen, etc., should the Rats make the playoffs.
The NFC South doesn't even have a quarterback in the whole division. Tampa had Brady, he retired. NO has Dalton and Winston, so Dalton basically, and AD is AD. Panthers have Sam Darnold... yawn. And Atlanta has Mariota. Lamar wins that division all by himself. Then when you get to conference play you have Geno smith, Daniel Jones, Jared Goff, Justin Fields, Trey Lance, Carson Wentz (maybe) Hurts, Cousins, Murray (who knows when he will be back, Prescott, Stafford and Rodgers. Not exactly the murderers row the AFC has. Lamar's path back to the Super Bowl is a whole lot easier if he switches to the NFC.
