Pitta to start the season on the PUP list

[Bmoreblitz]

I've counted him out a long time ago. It was already a sad ending. These are mostly formalities at this point I think. The Ravens have to pay him either way, so there's no harm in letting him continue to rehab with the trainers and doctors while holding on to the 5-10% chance that he can get healthy enough to contribute at some point. I'm torn, I think it would be awesome and it's his prerogative to try to get back on the field if he still has some football left...but the way he went down, with his hip just giving out like that, maybe the team should take the decision out of his hands for his own safety.
