Ravens OT Gaither a no-show on Saturday
Posted by Michael David Smith on May 8, 2010, 11:04 AM EST
Ravens offensive tackle Jared Gaither was not on the field as the team began practicing Saturday morning.
Gaither’s absence is notable because he’s been the subject of swirling trade rumors, with the Bills most apparently in pursuit. Gaither did practice on Friday, and was not reported to be injured on the field. During the initial workout, Gaither was moved from left tackle to right tackle. 2009 first-round pick Michael Oher took over on quarterback Joe Flacco’s blind side. Saturday, Oniel Cousins replaced Gaither with the first team.
It’s possible that Gaither and his agent are unhappy about the position change. Left tackles generally make more money than right tackles, and Gaither is in a contract year.
It’s also possible that the Ravens are in the process of finalizing a trade.
Stay tuned.
