On Thursday, a hearing was scheduled to commence between the Ravens and running back Ray Rice regarding whether the team owes him more than $3.5 million for cutting him hours after the notorious in-elevator video surfaced on September 8.
Per a league source with knowledge of the situation, Rice’s grievance against the Ravens has settled. It happened, according to the source, several days ago. Which renders entirely moot a lengthy article published last night by the Baltimore Sun regarding the looming grievance hearing. (And which also renders moot the lengthy analysis of the grievance hearing posted here within the last hour based on the article in the Sun.)
The term “settled” implies money changed hands. Chances are that the amount will not be disclosed publicly, which is common when money changes hands to put to rest a legal claim.
So that ends the relationship between Rice and the Ravens. The real question is whether anyone else will give Rice a job.
