The Baltimore Ravens signed safety Earl Thomas to a big-money contract before the 2019 season. While Thomas was an incredible player for the team on the field, the signing was a disaster off of it, with Thomas being cut after just one season with Baltimore.
Thomas joined Josina Anderson on “The Exhibit,” where he talked about his time with the Ravens, how it ended, and more. When bringing up the 2019 team, Thomas had a very interesting comment: While quarterback Lamar Jackson was Lamar Jackson, he let the team know that he himself was Earl Thomas.

It never felt like Thomas meshed with the Ravens off the field, and his fit inside of Baltimore’s culture always felt like it wasn’t completely there. While he helped anchor one of the best defenses in the NFL that year, the off-field baggage was too much to handle, leading to his release.
