Ravens release McAlister

Baltimore Sun
"The Ravens cut former Pro Bowl cornerback Chris McAlister today, a move that will save the team $8 million in salary cap room.
General manager Ozzie Newsome met with McAlister today to inform him of the team's decision.
"First, we want to thank Chris for all he did for the Ravens in the past 10 years," Newsome said in a statement. "He was a major contributor to many big wins, including the Super Bowl. To play the type of defense we have used here, you have to have corners who can cover one-on-one. He was one of the best at that for us. He was physical, and he could run with the best."
"All of us who had the opportunity to coach Chris for the first time this season have an appreciation for all the good things he did for this team through the years," coach John Harbaugh said."
