Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that a holdup in the expected deal between the Ravens and WR Ryan Grant after Baltimore discovered something during his physical that has them concerned.
- According to Rapoport, the Ravens are concerned about the kind of guaranteed money they were prepared to commit to Grant before he took his physical. Grant was set to sign a four-year, $29 million contract that includes $14.5M guaranteed for injury.
- The Ravens have reportedly hit pause on the deal and it’s unclear if Grant will even sign with the Ravens now or move on.
Grant, 27, is a former fifth-round pick by the Redskins out of Tulane in the 2014 NFL Draft. He just finished a four-year, $2,433,612 rookie contract and is testing the open market for the first time in his NFL career.
