""I just look forward to connecting with him, helping him become the best version of himself, creating a team identity that allows him to thrive, which he's already proven to be one of the best players in the National Football League," Minter said during a 30-minute introductory news conference Thursday. "[I want to] put a team around him that allows him to reach that ultimate goal of bringing a Super Bowl back to Baltimore.""
""It's been great to get to know him," Minter said. "I think relationships take time. And so, you don't become the head coach of the Ravens and expect to have a deep relationship with anybody. Those take time. We've been working towards that already. We've had wonderful conversations, look forward to many, many more.""
Jesse Minter intends to connect with quarterback Lamar Jackson and build a team around the two-time NFL MVP. Minter aims to help Jackson become the best version of himself and create a team identity that allows Jackson to thrive. The coaching change followed reports of chemistry issues between Jackson and the previous staff late in John Harbaugh's 18-year tenure. Harbaugh was fired on Jan. 6 amid roster and salary cap considerations tied to Jackson's $74.5 million cap hit. Minter has already had multiple conversations with Jackson and expects their relationship to develop over time.
