Linebacker Ray Lewis will become an unrestricted free agent in less than a month unless the Ravens use the franchise tag on him or offer him a new deal. Lewis, very aware of his situation, doesn't think it's the business of anyone aside from him and the Baltimore organization. "What I'm thinking, nobody needs to know," said Lewis. "I've given my prayers to God. It's between me and him. It's nobody else's business. That's between me and God."

Terrell Suggs has hinted that he and fellow defenders Ray Lewis and Bart Scott should give the Ravens a discount in order for the three to remain with the team. "We really don't want to play without one another because we've been playing together for so long," Suggs told Sirius NFL radio. Suggs, Lewis, and Scott can become unrestricted free agents at the end of February. "If they treat me fair, then it shouldn't be a problem. I have all the faith in the world that they'll do that. I think they'll address all three of us with what they see as fair. I think if all three of us can come in the middle and form an agreement, then we shouldn't have a problem," Suggs added.

The Ravens have reportedly promoted linebackers coach Greg Mattison to defensive coordinator. He'll replace Rex Ryan, who is now the head coach of the Jets.

There is some belief that new Jets coach Rex Ryan could help the team land Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis, who could become a free agent this March. Ryan coached Lewis for a decade in Baltimore, but it's unlikely that the Jets will be able to afford both Lewis and quarterback Brett Favre as they are already $10 million over the salary cap.

Baltimore running back Willis McGahee said on Monday that he feels alright and that all tests on his neck were promising. "I'm all right. Everything's OK," McGahee said. "The MRI and CAT scans checked out good, so everything's good." After catching a pass and taking a few steps downfield in the fourth quarter of Sunday's AFC Title Game, McGahee was drilled by Pittsburgh safety Ryan Clark. "Yeah, I blacked out," McGahee admitted. "When I woke up, they were taking my face mask off, but I was still talking. I don't know how I was doing it. I just remember that my eyes were closed, and I was still talking. The next thing I know, we're in some kind of room in their stadium and then we were in the ambulance."

Baltimore running back Willis McGahee is expected to make a full recovery after being carted off the field following a hard hit in Sunday's AFC Title Game. McGahee was released from a hospital in Pittsburgh early this morning and returned to Baltimore. He was treated for head and neck injuries. "It was a heck of a hit, for one thing," Baltimore coach John Harbaugh said on Sunday. "Your first thought is obviously concern for Willis. Once we got out there, and hearing the doctors talk and see him move around, you felt like it was going to be OK. Both sides obviously had concerns, but we were happy it was not immediately serious at that point."

Baltimore's Trevor Pryce has some advice for the Cardinals when they face the Steelers in Super Bowl XLIII. "Here's my advice to the Arizona Cardinals: Don't rush Ben Roethlisberger," Pryce said. "After that, he's a playground football player. That's what he is, and he's a damn good one."

Ravens' running back Willis McGahee was hospitalized Sunday night after absorbing a jarring hit by Steelers' safety Ryan Clark late in the AFC championship game, as reported by Yahoo.com. McGahee was strapped to a cart and brought to the locker room, where it was announced that he had movement in his arms and legs but was suffering from extreme neck pain. ?He was talking and moving when they carried him off,? Ravens' teammate Terrell Suggs said. ?That is always a good sign. Hopefully, he can still take the ride home with us.? McGahee later was taken to Presbyterian Hospital, where doctors said he is ?neurologically intact.? He is expected to remain hospitalized overnight.

Just moments after Sunday?s AFC championship game ended, multiple media outlets reported that Ravens defensive coordinator Rex Ryan will be named the coach of the Jets on Monday or Tuesday. The Ravens? season ended with a loss to the Steelers on Sunday, freeing Ryan to accept the job with the Jets. Ryan is expected to be named the coach on Monday and formally introduced on Tuesday, the New York Daily News reported.

The Ravens will likely be without their best cornerback against the Steelers in the AFC Championship Game on Sunday. Starting cornerback Samari Rolle is listed as doubtful with a thigh injury. He suffered the injury last week against the Titans.
