HOUSHMANDZADEH A RAVEN

T.J. Houshmandzadeh has signed a 1-year deal this morning with the Baltimore Ravens reportedly worth $855,000.00.

After being released by the Seahawks over the weekend, as teams finalized their roosters for the regular season, Housh found himself out of work after just one quick season in Seattle, the emergence of the young Mike Williams and the hiring of Pete Carroll.
Houshmandzadeh becomes part of a very talented Ravens receiving corp and gives Joe Flacco many experienced targets that will only make his progression on the field that much more easy.
On a side note, the Ravens are getting a valuable asset at rock bottom prices! The minimum that they have signed Houshmandzadeh for was possible as Seattle will be on the hook to pay the receiver $6.1 million this season of his remaining $7.0 million dollars owed, even after cutting him. Not bad for an aging receiver that only had to endure the Seattle rain for about 8 months last year.
