Emanuel Cook News: Cook had his exclusive-rights tender removed Monday and is now a free agent, the Baltimore Sun's Aaron Wilson reports.

Cook had his exclusive-rights tender removed Monday and is now a free agent, the Baltimore Sun's Aaron Wilson reports.

An exclusive-rights free agent tender has almost no contribution to a team's cap number, so Cook's release indicates that the Ravens want nothing to do with him. That's no surprise, seeing as he spent last season on injured reserve and recorded just 10 tackles in his first two seasons. Cook is now an unrestricted free agent and can sign with any team. He would probably be happy just to catch on somewhere for the league minimum.
