Terrell Suggs will strongly consider holding out if any team besides the Baltimore Ravens claims him off waivers from the Arizona Cardinals, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Suggs spent the first 16 years of his career in Baltimore, serving as one of the greatest players in Ravens history. The pass-rusher made seven Pro Bowls, captured one Defensive Player of the Year award, and won Super Bowl XLVII with Baltimore.

Suggs was waived Friday after contributing 5.5 sacks and four forced fumbles to the Cardinals across 13 games. He signed a one-year deal with Arizona in the offseason, and whoever claims him will be on the hook for just over $350,000 for the rest of the season.

Baltimore has the lowest waiver priority because it has the best record in the NFL, meaning 30 other teams will have to pass on claiming Suggs for the Ravens to acquire him. The 37-year-old can be claimed on waivers at 4 p.m. ET Monday.
