Fan Poll: Is Terrell Suggs coming back too early?
Losing Ray Lewis is a big deal for the Baltimore Ravens defense. If you add in the injury to Ladarius Webb, you can easily understand the eagerness of the team to bring Terrell Suggs back from injury. Suggs playing this Sunday will the be the quickest return of any athlete to competition that has suffered an Achilles injury. No doubt he is a freak of nature, but let's be serious here. The players sometimes have to be saved from themselves at times. Is he return now not the best option long term?
Ray Lewis may retire at the end of the year. Suggs is next anchor and face of the defense. There is no need to risk the future for now.
The Ravens travel to Houston to take on the Texans this Sunday.
RBs get paid; Forte gets $32 million; Rice gets $40 million
The Chicago Bears and Matt Forte agree to 4 year deal that totals $32 million dollars. Ray Rice gets a 5 year deal from the Baltimore Ravens that totals $40 million.
The Rice deal will pay him $17 million the first year and $25 million over the first 2 years.
Both RBs expressed their displeasure with the franchise tags placed on them by their respective teams. They both planned not to show up any team activities until the deals were done. Now, we know who is going to picking up the tab for a few dinners.
Expect more deals to come including the Ravens Ed Reed and QB Joe Flacco, Maurice Jones-Drew, Derrelle Revis, and more.
