Baltimore Ravens GM noncommittal over Terrell Suggs future

Baltimore Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome has refused to rule out the possibility of Terrell Suggs being released by the team during the off-season.

Linebacker Suggs, 31, has been with the Ravens since they drafted him in 2003, playing a key role as the franchise won the Super Bowl last year.

However, with both his age and a large salary against him, Newsome suggested that Suggs may be plying his trade elsewhere when the NFL begins again in September.

According to the club's official Twitter account: "Newsome said whether to keep Suggs or not is a decision the #Ravens will have to talk about. Said he's not afraid to let players walk out."

Suggs is a six-time Pro Bowler and had 10 sacks to his name this season.
