Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
If the Ravens can't restructure Lewis' contract, they are expected to release the franchise's all-time leading rusher. Cutting Lewis, who has an $11.6 million salary cap number, would create $8.3 million in cap room. The Ravens are approximately $3 million under the cap and need more space to address other needs.
