The Baltimore Ravens are prepared to use their franchise tag on Terrell Suggs again this year if they can’t reach a deal with the free agent before Thursday’s 4 pm deadline.
Suggs would receive a guaranteed salary of $10.2 million for the coming year and has expressed a desire to stay in Baltimore, suggesting fellow free agents Ray Lewis and Bart Scott should give the Ravens a “hometown discount” to keep the vaunted defense together.
Suggs made his third Pro Bowl appearance this year, led the team in sacks, and is still just 26 years old.
