Mandatory Credit: Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY SportsThe Baltimore Ravens are expected to cut ties with Pro Bowl FB Vonta Leach. They tried to restructure his deal, but the two sides were unable to come to an agreement. Leach will have to take his talents to some other town now.
Leach has already thanked the city of Baltimore through his twitter account.
Thank @ravens organization for a great two years. I came here and did what we set out to do and that's win the Super Bowl. My time here

I am sure that Leach will be a wanted commodity. The fullback position is becoming extinct and Leach is one of the pure fullbacks left in the game. Someone could use him.
Ray Rice will likely miss him the most. Leach often led the way for Rice on offense. Now Leach will he to create holes for another 1,000 yard back. Who will get this bulldozer?
