H2o Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 Not sure what the riff is with Baltimore after just one season, but apparently they sent him home yesterday and he's not back today either.
njbuff Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 He comes off as another one of these man child's out there. 1
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 I'm down for the Ravens to deal with a distraction 8
Beast Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 The Ravens are a solid organization. I have to imagine this is a Earl Thomas issue and not a Baltimore Ravens issue. 5
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 This is the type of guy the Pats would be all over. Watch him get cut and become a pain in our ass twice a year. 2 1
machine gun kelly Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 I just looked it up. He had a heated exchange with Safety Chuck Clark potentially due to a missed assignment by Thomas. The team sent him home. He also had a similar thing with Nose Tackle, Brandon Williams after the Cleveland game. Crazy as the Ravens gave him a four year $55 mil. contract in the Spring of 2019.

Who could’ve guessed that the guy who flipped Seattle fans the bird after getting injured two seasons ago would cause a problem on a new team? 5 4 2

From the story it seems they have an out if he is let go for conduct detrimental to the team. Probably a stipulation thrown in after his Seattle fiasco.

Yup and apparently Ravens team leaders want him gone. He was told to stay home today as well. Interesting.

He will join them and speak glowingly about the patriot way and how he loves it their, especially the perks of being on the Lolita Express 2, I mean Krafts jet! 1
JerseyBills Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 To anyone saying Earl lost a step hasn't watched him play. It'd be like us losing Hyde, minus the attitude issues.
Mr. WEO Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 He's not being the best version of himself..............or IS HE?! Anyway, I doubt he's going anywhere. Over this? This is what they paid for. Now Harbaugh can't handle him?

I think Pete Carroll's true genius as coach was that he could maintain a winning culture with egos like Richard Sherman and Beast-Mode. I didn't realiize Thomas was one, too, but it just emphasizes the point. 4

I have a feeling with Brady gone and the pats likely not being as dominant, those malcontents that they collect aren’t going to be so easy to control. Lose a few games and watch out... 4

NFL network described the exchange as a fight with Chuck Clark. In any event for the team to send him home, it must have been bad. Sending a guy home doesn't happen often.

There's no question is was one of the best during his Seattle years but that's in the rear view mirror now. He's only 31 so I assume he's still a top player, but he's been involved in a lot of collisions so his decline might not be slow and graceful. 1
