Free Agency

  • New Colts WR Ryan Grant said of the Ravensโ€™ decision to fail him on a physical: โ€œIf there was an issue with my ankle, I wouldnโ€™t have passed the physical with the Colts and the Raiders. I canโ€™t control what (the Ravens) did. I canโ€™t control their assessment of my ankle. Iโ€™ve gone to other places. Iโ€™ve seen multiple doctors and Iโ€™ve passed physicals so that should pretty much speak for itself.โ€ (Jamison Hensley)
