The good news for the Ravens is there was "offset language" that allows us to recoup 6 million now even before the grievance. Those things are complicated to explain but I listened to the unofficial Ravens cap expert explaining it.

He had a base of 10 million plus a 5 million bonus. So we get 6 of the 10 back now apparently.

I would be worried less about the financials and more about losing the player.  I didn't realize what a train wreck he appears to be on the outside, but on the field, he is one of the best.
