This report is utterly ridiculous. First, there's no way Lewis would get other guys to hold out with him. It would only hinder his own chances at milking more money out of the Ravens, because if they give more to Reed and Heap, then they won't have as much available to give to Lewis.

Secondly, $50 million? I can't believe Ray would even be serious about that. Peyton Manning got $34 million and he's a friggin QB, the most important player on the field. If Ray is serious about $50 million, there's NO WAY IN HELL he'd get it.

I think this report is hogwash. But if it's true, you're right, he would fall into the "selfish" player category.
