The Facts: The Ravens anticipate McClain, their two-time Pro Bowl fullback, to test the free agent market.
Diehards Line:They aren't ruling out potentially re-signing McClain, who has lobbied unsuccessfully to be more involved on offense two seasons after rushing for a career-high 902 yards and 10 touchdowns. He only rushed for 85 yards on 28 carries with no scores last season. It's safe to say potential suitors promising an increased role as a rusher will be of great interest to McClain. HC John Harbaugh seems to realize this. "LeRon McClain is a ball carrier, too, he's not just a fullback," Harbaugh said Thursday at the NFL scouting combine. "The market is going to declare that a little bit. I would love to have Le'Ron signed right now, too. I think he's going to be interested to see what the market is going to bear for him. There's so much uncertainty right now. It's just hard to predict. ..." The Ravens recently signed veteran fullback Jason McKie.
