This is horrible news for the Ranves and Suggs, who had previously sustained a torn Achilles just a few years ago.
Baltimore has had to continually find pass-rush help in recent years, as they’ve lost a number of edge-rushers in free agency.
The Ravens will now turn to Elvis Dumervil, Courtney Upshaw, and Za’Darius Smith as their top-three pass rushers for the remainder of the season.
Suggs, 32, is in the second year of his five-year, $28.5 million contract that included $16 million guaranteed. He is set to make a base salary of $1 million (2015), $4.5 million (2016), $6.5 million (2017-2018).
In 2014, Suggs appeared in all 16 games for the Ravens and recorded 61 tackles, 12 sacks, a fumble recovery, a pass defense and a safety for the Ravens.
