Player Update: Free agent Ray Lewis

Free agent Ray Lewis reportedly irritated the Ravens' front office last week by saying he'd welcome playing for the Cowboys or Jets.

Beat writer Mike Preston concedes it was "posturing" and anticipates owner Steve Bisciotti caving to Lewis' demands. Lewis is expected to command $9 million annually on a three-year contract. That'd be quite a haul for a linebacker turning 34 who wore down during the stretch run last season.
