Just days after signing a one-year contract and getting a second opportunity with the Baltimore Ravens, linebacker Rolando McClain was caught Sunday in his hometown of Decatur, Ala., after being charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest, based on Monique Jones and Jeff Zrebiec of The Baltimore Sun. With this the Ravens did not wish to comment until more information regarding the charge appeared, saying only (via team spokesman Kevin Byrne), amazement are seeking more details. The only data we have at the moment is from news reports.a In accordance with ZrebiecA, more information of the arrest have come to light, and they don't bode well for McClain and his hopes of making the Ravensa roster: Here is the lack of wise practice that the former first-round pick displayed while with the Oakland Raiders that made the teamas determination to cut him an easy one, if most of these claims against McClain are true. After signing McClain The Baltimore Sun was told by this offseason, Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome in regards to the struggling linebackeras possiblity to make the team and the way the franchise could manage his conduct: Rolando is simply getting an opportunity to come and make our 53-man roster. That is it. ... As for how he is planning to conduct himself here, he's coming here merely to be a part of this basketball team. I do believe the inventors in the locker room may be ready to provide him with the proper guidance as to the way John wants his football players and his football team to be he wants. There is a very good chance that Ravens officers feel that these crimes are harmful and egregious to the staff, and there's little doubt that team may consider cutting the linebacker. As Zrebiec's tweets indicate, this isnat initially McClain has had trouble with regulations, sometimes. McClain had his latest run-in with regulations (just before Sunday's arrest) on Jan. 8 of the year, after being arrested for lying to police about his identity (h/t NFL.com). McClain was charged with four misdemeanors (h/t ESPN) and also arrested in May of 2012, but that case was dropped after McClain apparently came to an economic deal with the accuser. The long history of problems with the law and a contract that can simply be voided are typical signs that indicate the Ravens reducing their ties with McClain and addressing their need at middle linebacker in the draft.
