It appears as though Ravens FS Ed Reed is no longer considering options beyond playing in the NFL, as he made it clear that he wants to continue to play for the Ravens beyond 2012. “I know [GM] Ozzie [Newsome] and them know I want to be here,” Reed said, via BaltimoreRavens.com. “We will get that done when it’s time to cross that bridge. I have a lot of respect for this organization … And I know they have respect for me.” Reed is entering the final year of his contract, but seems to be rather optimistic about his long-term future with the team.
