The Facts:
The Ravens have told McGahee they will release him when the league calendar permits it, a source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. Reported by ESPN.com

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
McGahee played in 15 games last season, but had a career-low 100 rushing attempts for 300 yards. The 29-year old Miami product saw his rushing touchdowns drop from 12 to five as Ray Rice continued to take a majority of the Ravens' carries. Despite the lack of carries, McGahee has been a key part of the Ravens' short-yardage packages. Baltimore FB Le'Ron McClain is also scheduled to be free agent. With the lockout over, the league has set a 4 p.m. ET deadline on Thursday for players to be cut or waived.
