There were a dozen of players who were supposed to be free agents but because they didn’t know about the new deadline they are not. TO has a legitimate case whether you like it or not.

FYI: TO was employed by 49'ers and technically speaking they sold his rights to Ravens. TO is questioning the 49'ers ability to sell his contract.

This is exactly what is wrong with society. The fact of the matter is he missed a deadline. He has two options, be a man and show up and play under the contract he has (which the ravens have already stated they will re-do) or option two sit on his ass for the next two years.
There is absolutely nothing legitimate about his case. San Francisco owned his rights, traded them to Baltimore and now Baltimore owns his rights.
