Where will Lamar Jackson play in 2023?

That's the buzz all around the league not just among fans, but media as well. And now it appears a new landing spot is emerging.

Could Lamar Jackson take over for Kirk Cousins for the Vikings in the NFC North? Some, as The Spun reported, think that's a possible landing spot now that Adam Thielen has been released and shipped off to Carolina.

"And even a wild card like Minnesota. Kirk Cousins has one year left on his contract if they want to reestablish their identity there," ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported on SportsCenter.

Four steps to getting Lamar Jackson to the Vikings:
1) GM Kwesi may already know Kirk is likely gone next year.
2) Sign Jackson to an offer. Lose two first rounders.
3) The Jets may be frustrated with the Packers trying to extort them in compensation for https://t.co/VOaktsZq89…

NFL fans have reacted appropriately.

"It's not going to happen. Cousins or draft a new, young QB," one fan wrote.

"No chance Kirk waves his no trade clause," one fan added.

"The fact that Jeremy Fowler even floated the Vikings as a Lamar Jackson suitor is incredible. What's going on here," one fan wrote.

"This would not only help the Vikings, it would screw over the Packers. This would be some next-level, Sonny Weaver-like maneuvering," one fan added.

At this point, it just feels like fans want some kind of resolution, whatever that resolution is. Even if Jackson signs elsewhere or sits out all of 2023, fans would like to just move on from this story and know what the long-term future holds for both Jackson and the Ravens.

Is Jackson's future with the Vikings? Time will tell.
