Jernigan likely to make impact - while he's here | Paul Domowitch
JESSICA GRIFFIN / Staff Photographer Tim Jernigan says he is eager to be part of Jim Schwartz' defense. TIM JERNIGAN'S abrupt departure from the Baltimore Ravens earlier this week had nothing to do with any of the things people have been whispering about.
It had nothing to do with the 24-year-old defensive tackle's attitude or his motor or even the fact he went the last seven games of the 2016 season without a sack.
What it had everything to do with was the five-year, $52.5 million contract the Ravens gave their starting nose tackle, Brandon Williams, the day before free agency began.
