The bus has moved on to the next stop.
Running back Gus Edwards’ departure from the Ravens this week was not at all unexpected. With a tight cap, plethora of unrestricted free agents and a sense that the team’s backs were not very trusted weaponry during last season’s AFC Championship Game by the coaching staff, it seemed to be just a matter of time.
But it still stings.
Yes, this is professional football and players come and go all the time. Former first-round pick Patrick Queen, who developed exactly the way a team would want a raw first-round pick to develop, left for the hated Pittsburgh Steelers.
