Looks like he is pretty determined to stay in Baltimore, especially if they can keep Lewis and Scott. I suppose he may reconsider if those two are not retained, or if those two are not so keen on his 'hometown discount'.

He did say he did not want to play for any other team though, even if he hit free agency.

He basically has sent out all the right sounds to allow Baltimore to give him a low contract.

Should also bump up the price for Pep, with Suggs and him being clearly the best DEs on the market Pep may all of a sudden have a couple more suitors.

This does mean that there is no definite replacement for him though...

I would be absolutely stunned if Baltimore didn't re-sign Suggs.

Indeed, but this was interesting because he is willing to take a pay cut so that they do not lose either Lewis or Scott. He even said that he would speak to them to see if they could work out group deal, so that they would have three quality Lbs tied up for well below market value.

Reminds me of when Kris Dielman went on record of turning down a much much bigger deal to stay in San Diego because his teammates pleaded with him to stay.

      Moton Meets the Press

      By TD alt · Posted

      One thing about it, he's not thinking about retiring. I found it odd that some Huddlers were taking rumors and running with them, imagining a slow down and "up-playing" injuries. Moton feels great and is still in his prime according to him, and his game is still indicative of his thoughts.  Sure, it may ultimately come down to economics, but I am sure that everyone involved is motivated to keep him in Charlotte.

      Moton Meets the Press

      I think the knee stuff with Moton has been blown way out of proportion. The exact quote was “It’s chronic stuff. Most linemen deal with it. But it’s just figuring out what we can do to make sure it’s limited and I’m still able to explode off it, which right now I can and I feel like I can in the future,” After a while, you start learning more about it and what can we do to make sure it’s as little of an issue as possible. I feel like I’m moving like I was when I was younger.” I don't view that as a guy who's saying his knees are on their last leg I see that as a 10-year NFL olineman saying that obviously after 10 years of playing a really physical sport, he's never truly gonna be 100% healthy again and he's gonna need to spend more time with the training staff to ensure his body can continue to perform at a high level. I think Moton has another 3 to 5 years left if he wants to continue playing.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      So much crying. Tiresome. All of you should have had enough time to come to terms with the team picking up his 5th year...
