NFL: Four Teams Are Reportedly Interested In Possibly Signing Ray Rice

RadioOnFire.com - Former Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice won his appeal and is reinstated back into the NFL.  His next hurdle is finding a team that would essentially take on a public relations nightmare by signing the now disgraced RB.  Though Rice and his wife Janay have moved on from the domestic violence incident that captured the attention of the nation, people still hold serious resentment towards the NFL player that knocked out his wife and dragged her lifeless body out of an elevator.  Well this is the NFL and they’ve even forgiven murders and alleged rapists so all is not lost.  It turns out four teams are reportedly interested in possibly signing Ray Rice but he doesn’t have to the greenlight to get back in the game just yet.

via ESPN:

At least four teams have expressed interest in recently reinstated running back Ray Rice, including Indianapolis and New Orleans, though the Colts and Saints are not expected to pursue him, according to multiple league sources.

Two sources declined to identify the other two teams that have been checking into Rice.

It still will be difficult for Rice to find work this season. He turns 28 in January, is coming off a down season and hasn’t played football since training camp. But Rice signing this season is not out of the question, either, if the right team should emerge.

Multiple NFL executives have said the profile of a team willing to sign Rice would be one that is a contender with injuries in its backfield and a strong-minded head coach.

Rice is said to have stayed in great shape, and believes he could provide help to any team that signs him immediately. But Rice also is not locked into playing this year, as much as he’d like to, per sources.
