JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Jalen Ramsey crouched in the back of an armored truck, peered through a small window and waited for his introduction.
The two-time Pro Bowl cornerback then flung open both doors, revealing dozens of phony money bags and a huge smile.
Ramsey put on quite a show as the Jacksonville Jaguars reported for training camp Wednesday. The performance likely will serve as the start of a yearlong push for a new contract.
"It's time to get this money, money," the driver said into a megaphone as Ramsey exited the vehicle.
Ramsey is entering the final year of his $23.3 million rookie contract. The Jaguars exercised the fifth-year option in the deal, meaning he's tied to the club for $13.7 million in 2020.
Ramsey is one of the top cornerbacks, if not the best, in the league. He has nine interceptions and 44 pass breakups in three seasons while typically shadowing each opponent's No. 1 receiver.
