Ravens placed ILB Ray Lewis and C Matt Birk on the reserve/retired list.
With the move, the Ravens save $6.4 million against the salary cap, which is now officially set at $123.9 million, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen. Birk announced his retirement last Friday, and Lewis made it known that he was retiring before the playoffs. Lewis is a sure-fire first-ballot Hall of Famer.
