The Baltimore Ravens have re-signed WR Derrick Mason for two more years. This almost surely guarantees that he will retire as a Baltimore Raven. This also gives Flacco a familiar face to go with including Stallworth and Boldin.

“This is outstanding, just great news for the Ravens,” coach John Harbaugh said. “Our coaches are happy. Derrick’s teammates are happy and you know Joe is smiling. … We would have lost something special if Derrick had gone to another team. We have gotten better in the last couple of days.”
