 Keep it clean Freelance in the building, baby. Hopefully for not too much longer though. We'll see how it goes. Anyway Somebody who is not freelance and I saw a lot of Ravens fans getting all hyped like oh, man Is is Lamar Jackson recruiting they flowers to the Ravens? Cuz Lamar posted they flowers some his shoes on his Instagram and that had a lot of Ravens fans feeling like Okay But anyway, somebody who is also currently Freelancing That would be former Ravens defensive lineman Kaleis Campbell Kaleis Campbell is somebody who the Baltimore Ravens they acquired via trade a couple years ago and He was one of those players like you can't say this about everybody But he's one of those players that they play for a couple of different teams before because he played for the Cardinals He played for the Jaguars as well. So they play for a couple different teams before But when they got to the Ravens, he was one of those players was that was like, oh, yeah You should have been here already. You you definitely are a Raven and you again You can't say that about everybody Steve Smith senior is also another one of those players where you like a you fit in here Perfectly, but not everybody does as we all know, but that's another topic for another day But um Kaleis Campbell certainly made his mark for the Baltimore Ravens as far as long as he's been With the team made an immediate impact. I know he has slowed up a bit especially last year And I think he's just tired sometimes a little bit of it was injury and whatnot but And it's expected that the young guys would really step up this year and take a big step forward I don't we'll see how that goes whether it's with Kaleis Campbell or it's not but Kaleis Campbell is somebody who you've been pretty good overall with the Baltimore Ravens But now he is a free agent and I'm wondering if Kaleis Campbell is just waiting If he's really waiting and watching to see how things play out with Lamar Jackson Before he would decide to go back Reason I say that is just because of how this thing has been playing out and I take you back a couple weeks ago Well about a week and change ago on March 13th From and that was around when the Ravens had released Kaleis Campbell Justina Anderson who has been all over everything for the Baltimore Ravens and right really just all over everything period But justina Anderson she says she got a text from Kaleis Campbell on the next chapter of his NFL future after moving on from the Ravens And again, this is from March 13th. He said I love Baltimore, but everything happens for a reason I'm going to be ready to dominate for someone next season. Some team is going to get a beast out there So he letting it be known just reminding everybody like hey I ain't done playing and even before then he had come on NFL Network and let it be known like hey I'm coming back. I'm playing for my 16th season So I ain't going nowhere And a lot of us figured especially me I figured it would be with the Ravens Whether they reworked his contract or even if they cut him, but they they brought him back But see when they cut him it felt different There's a different type of release especially for somebody who we expected them to Make some type of transaction with If I expected them to either rework his deal or if they cut them I expected to bring them back at a reduced rate at a reduced salary But when the Ravens cut him It was different because they released his whole statement on Kalleus Campbell because normally it would be all right We've released Kalleus Campbell, but no, they didn't do that. They said we released Kalleus Campbell Oh, he's been so much to the Baltimore Ravens community and the fans and all this stuff They did put in there. Hey, we haven't closed the door on him returning, but still to issue that statement I was just like, oh Okay, I didn't see that coming But Kalleus Campbell, could he be waiting to see what the Ravens do with Lamar Jackson? That's what it seems like in my eyes And I think it's a real possibility Because Kalleus Campbell is obviously on the back end of his career. He could still play still makes him plays But he's obviously not what he used to be so I'm sure he wouldn't want to waste time Kalleus Campbell has made a lot of money throughout his career and not saying that he shouldn't try to get the best deal that he could possibly get But it may not really be all about the bread at this point in his career Because he's made a lot. He made a whole lot, but again, nothing wrong with making more Like I always say hey you players go go get your bread. Go get your money But could Kalleus Campbell really be waiting on the Ravens to see what happens with Lamar Jackson Obviously, we know Kalleus Campbell has been somebody that has continued or not recently He ain't a Raven no more but when he was still with the Ravens Um, he was somebody that continued to say hey, we want Lamar Jackson here Lamar Jackson Hey, I hope that he signs the Ravens want him here Lamar Jackson wants to be here I hope they that they can get this deal worked out Ravens can get to the Super Bowl with Lamar Jackson Lamar Jackson gives them the best chance of winning but Kalleus Campbell continued to say a lot of those things and Express his public Support for Lamar Jackson So I wonder if privately he's just sitting back and waiting and watching and being like, hmm I don't know what's going on with Lamar over there So I I ain't trying to resign and then out. We don't know I don't know if the Ravens have offered him something to come back. I don't know we haven't heard anything about that But I just I wonder, you know It's been said it was announced yesterday that he is going to be visiting with the Atlanta Falcons and see That got me thinking too like man It could be that the Atlanta Falcons are Really interested in Kalleus Campbell. It could be real interest. It could be interest from both sides Because I'm sure again at this point in his career. He would not want to waste his time Cuz I mean if he just wanted to take a trip to Atlanta, he could take a trip to Atlanta But I mean if Arthur blanking them if they gonna pay for I mean you might well make a free trip But anyway, um, I'm sure he wouldn't want to waste his time And the Atlanta Falcons could look at him like hey He is an older veteran, but he can bring leadership Atlanta Falcons are a very young team right now They've been going through this rebuilding process And I guess the rumors were that they could be interested in one Ravens player this offseason But I guess they decided, you know, we're gonna flip the script We're gonna actually gonna be interested in a different former Ravens player this offseason that being Kalleus Campbell And again with leadership leadership was be probably the biggest thing that he could bring to the Atlanta Falcons Leadership of a veteran that knows what it takes to last in this league knows what it takes to get it done in the league It's still gonna for them honey sex still gonna for them honey sex. I'll get there one day, man He closed it closed, but anyway I just wonder what he's thinking with this whole thing I wonder if it's really causing him to wait now. We always talk about how NFL teams the Ravens specifically And other teams do it of course, but teams will do this thing where if they trying to re-sign somebody They were trying to sign a particular player Then a lot of times if the negotiations they might be going back and forth But if they just they haven't been able to close it yet, but they close But they haven't been able to close the deal yet They may bring in another player at that same position Just to sort of try to put a little pressure on the player that they're negotiating with to let him know like hey We want you to we want to keep you but if this don't work out. We ready to move on in another direction We've seen it happen time and time again. It's business. We get it and this is not a bad deal It's just it's business as part of the game, but I wonder if This could also be Kalaeus Campbell sort of flipping the script possibly this just me thinking out loud and This is him being like I Ravens What's up? What's going on? And I and but still while waiting for Lamar Jackson to get that whole thing worked out and who knows when that's gonna be But this could be Kalaeus Campbell letting the Ravens know like hey It's other teams interested in me and I'm willing to move on and like he said when he texts justina Anderson like hey Somebody gonna get a beast out of me. Whoever I'm playing for next they're gonna get a beast out of me So that's publicly led to putting it out there like hey Ravens. It's It might not be you my friends Y'all may not be the ones who that I'm shooting up for next season So y'all better get it right whether you come with me with a right offer or I'm gonna get right somewhere else I'm gonna write somewhere else and then but of course even before that just him watching the whole Lamar Jackson thing Play yourself out and just sitting in the background just wondering waiting and watch But anyway We'll see we'll see again so much this offseason. We just They just don't know man We just don't know Put out a tweet yesterday Well I said with everything going on between Lamar Jackson and the Ravens is just one of those things that we won't really know till we know We heard this and we hear that and we've all drawn our own conclusions on what we think things mean and what we think is true or not But we just really don't know we will eventually but for now we just don't know and that's okay Because it is okay. No been some people like oh man Let's just the whole thing needs to just move forward so we can get back to Ravens football What football is going on right now? Because we whenever I hear somebody say that what football is happening right now what Ravens football is having right now Ain't no football going on. I ain't even at the draft yet. Like we what is it's March 20 is March 22 Right ain't no football for another five months so talking about getting back to us So we can all get back to Ravens football even if Lamar was signed. We will not be getting back. No Ravens football right away We still got a long way to go but This whole thing. I mean, I know a lot of people have sort of tried to take it personal and be like man I'm tired of waiting on this. I'm tired of this. This is wasting my time. They need to hurry up What's gonna happen after it gets done After whatever get whatever gets done gets done whether he signs or he don't sign with a trade what whatever happens Then you're gonna have to wait another like five six months to anything for any football So, I mean you might well just I mean you got no choice by the way to doubt got no choice but to sit it out So, yeah, you got time. That's basically what I'm saying. You got time. This is not taken away from any football yet not yet It and will it reach that I don't think so I don't think it is gonna reach the season. But hey, well, we won't know till we know so Just like I think that Kaleas Campbell is doing We all just got to sit back and watch and wait because not only could Kaleas Campbell be watching how this whole thing played up But so much of the NFL could be too Whether the guys are free agents or not whether they potential free agents just players in general play a collegiate players Coming into the league players that are currently in the league. So many people are just watching and Wondering what is going to happen? Well, we just don't know
