OWINGS MILLS, MD. (AP) -- Running back Jamal Lewis, the NFL's Offensive Player of the Year in 2003, was cut by the Baltimore Ravens on Wednesday.

General manager Ozzie Newsome said the team still hoped to re-sign him.

Lewis ran for 2,066 yards in 2003, the second-highest total in NFL history. His numbers slipped after that -- his 1,132 yards last season were his most since then, although he averaged just 3.6 yards per carry.

What do you Raven fans think about this?

I know Jamal had an underacheiving season, but he is about only 28, he has about 5 solid years left in him in my opin....

However now the Ravens have 8 million in cap room and it saved them about 5 mil, so maybe they will bring in some more talent to replace him....

As expected.... He is not his former self... we've had good luck at finding RB's.... and his salary relief helps our off season situation
