The bad news for people that were hoping for big name free agent acquisitions this year keeps coming as the Baltimore Ravens have announced that they have tagged DT Haloti Ngata today, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
It’s never a surprise for a team to franchise big name free agents especially when they are considered one of the best defensive tackles in the game so the move is by no means a shock. Baltimore has already made it known that they were playing on tagging Ngata and trying to workout a longterm contract extension with him once a new CBA is in place.
The Ravens defense will have to fill some big holes to fill in the near future and maintaining players like Ngata will allow them to remain competitive while they plan for the years without Ray Lewis and Ed Reed.
