The Ravens are clearing more salary cap space.
A day after cutting a pair of veteran defensive backs, the Ravens have decided to release outside linebacker Elvis Dumervil. Former Ravens wide receiver turned NFL Media analyst Steve Smith Sr. first broke the news on Twitter and Dumervil confirmed it with a message to Ravens fans.
