A day later it was reported that Thomas was asked to leave the facility and not come back. Now, it appears that is a permanent decision as the Ravens announced they are officially releasing Thomas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Earl Thomas\u2019 days with the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Ravens?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Ravens<\/a> may be numbered after a fight w\/ Chuck Clark.
