Ravens S Ed Reed has hired Athletes First to represent him. Plenty of connections there, with Reggie Wayne and Ray Lewis part of that team.

Of course that doesn’t mean it will happen, but with the trade for Boldin and his money essential going to what Goldson was looking for, the 49ers are looking for a replacement in the safety position. Ed Reed would be a perfect fit, until the 49ers fill that spot with youth.
