Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to Sun staffer Aaron Wilson, the Ravens were on the verge of releasing Boldin at one point Friday afternoon, and he had prepared a statement thanking the fans for their support for his time in Baltimore. In case you missed it, Boldin denied on Saturday that he'd either been asked to take a cut or that he'd declined said request. Wilson's reporting clearly contradicts that. ... Whatever the case, the Ravens haven't given up on working something out with Boldin, who carries a $7.531 million salary-cap figure. So stay tuned. There will be more.
