The Crazy Newshound has found a new Ravens article.

Less than 24 hours after the end of the NFL lockout, Ravens players have come back to team headquarters in Owings Mills today, for the first time in over four months.

Tackle Ramon Harewood was the first player to arrive at the team facility, just before 10 a.m. today.

Other players and coaches followed.

Coach John Harbaugh confirmed that the Ravens are cutting veterans Derrick Mason, Todd Heap, Kelly Gregg and Willis McGahee.

Harbaugh called the cuts part of, " a natural progression in this league, and it's tough."

Combined, the cuts will save the team $18-million, but there are reports the team may resign Mason or Heap at a lower salary. The team is looking to sign some players who are now free agents, including guard and tackle Marshall Yanda.

Today, players are undergoing physicals and conditioning drills.

The team officially begins training camp tomorrow. The team is holding training camp in Owings Mills this year, meaning practices won't be open to the public. The team is planning to hold at least one practice open to the public at M&T Bank Stadium.

The team's first exhibition game is in Philadelphia on August 11.
