Today, the Ravens made DeShon Elliott and Chuck Clark available for the media. After a wild weekend resulting in the Ravens severing ties with All-Pro safety Earl Thomas III, the Ravens solidified their decision by letting the young safety, Elliott, discuss his new role as the starting safety paired with Clark. The Ravens cut Thomas on Sunday with a short statement, that read:
We have terminated S Earl Thomas’ contract for personal conduct that has adversely affected the Baltimore Ravens.
It seems the relationship between the player and organization was toxic, which makes Elliott’s statements during today’s presser all the more refreshing.
