Baltimore Ravens Release Terrence Cody Amid Animal Cruelty Allegations

The Baltimore Ravens announced Friday that they will release nose tackle Terrence Cody after the Super Bowl. The decision comes as the NFL player faces allegations of animal cruelty.

According to the Baltimore Sun, Cody is under investigation by the Baltimore County State’s Attorney’s office for animal cruelty. The case is believed to involve the death of the 26-year-old athlete’s dog, the Sun wrote.

Cody was set to become an unrestricted free agent in March when his one-year contract with the Ravens was due to expire.
