Wow. I find this kinda shocking. I thought he played well for them. Whatever this mysterious conflict was, it must have been pretty significant.
He'll probably be unemployed for about ten minutes.

What exactly did he do at that practice that was bad enough to get him cut?

Great part also is the Ravens have to eat a huge chunk of his contract
If he would like pay back for Ravens cutting him, he should sign one year league minimum deal with us that is loaded with incentives

There’s likely more to this. You don’t want someone out the building for an argument at training camp.

He better not go to Pittsburgh.

Apparently he's just not good enough any more and his teammates don't want him around, which is usually the end for a player on that team.

Recently punched a teammate in practice, late to meetings, missed workouts, was involved in a bizzare story earlier in the year (Wife caught him and his brother in bed with multiple women aka an orgy and held him a gunpoint...).

Damn. That'll do it.

Oh, I remember that story. I forgot about that.
I'm glad that he won't suit up for the Ravens, but I hope he finds a place to play elsewhere. He's a truly talented player and I still remember how the Seahawks kind of screwed him over by not signing him long term before he got injured.
RE: Ravens release Earl Thomas. - Yojimbo - 08-23-2020
Read he was pissing off teammates by being late to meetings and freelancing on plays. Don’t want him anywhere near our locker room.

Ravens will get out of paying due to contract clause
RE: Ravens release Earl Thomas. - Sled21 - 08-23-2020
Sounds like the safety that got punched out is filing a suit against the club.
RE: Ravens release Earl Thomas. - BengalFanInNJ - 08-23-2020
Just watch the Ravens defense actually IMPROVE.

Whoa, dude lost his mind. Seemed like a good guy with the Seahawks for the most part, drugs or something?

Nah he was an ass in Seattle as well Carol didn't care about it though.
The real issue is that the Ravens played him much differently than Seattle did. He is probably the best deep safety in the game but Baltimore looked to play him near the line of scrimmage.

Ah, didn't know that. Still a damn good player, surprised he was as good as he was there even being used wrong.
