Welcome to the Daily Caw, where we round up all the latest Baltimore Ravens news from around the web. Stephen Gostkowski got paid this week by the New England Patriots, which means that the Ravens now have a blueprint to follow regarding a possible Justin Tucker contract.

"1) He founded the ShowerPillWhat’s the ShowerPill, you ask? It’s an “athletic body wipe” for people on the move. Its advertising states that it doesn’t replace the shower, but does make its user feel refreshed. Forsett launched the company in 2009 and is still a co-owner. While Forsett got some of his former Seahawks teammates and even Head Coach Pete Carroll to film a video for it, I can’t say I’ve seen a lot of ShowerPills around the Ravens locker room."
