Samari Rolle to be released!

According to ESPN's John Clayton, the Baltimore Ravens are reportedly set to release veteran CB Samari Rolle. Rolle, who was due to receive over $4 million in salary this coming season, was the odd man out once Baltimore signed Domonique Foxworth to a big free agent contract a couple of weeks ago to start alongside Fabian Washington. The Ravens might have considered using Rolle as their nickel back, but certainly not at that salary. The 32 year old Rolle still has something left in the tank, so he should be able to sign on with another team, but not at his current rate. While he did play decent for the Ravens since returning from his issues with his epilepsy, he always was picked on when starting opposite the former Raven, Chris McAlister, who also was released this off season and still has not found a future home.

This means that the Ravens will still be in the market for a corner, be it through free agency or perhaps after the NFL Draft in late April.
