ExploreTrending on Facebook

After Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice was cut from the team over domestic abuse charges, the team offered fans the chance to trade in their Ray Rice jersey for the jersey of another player on the team. Many fans have decided to take advantage of the team's offer and are lining up in droves at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore.

The Baltimore Sun reports that thousands of fans have shown up so far. The exchange continues on Saturday.

Ray Rice was one of the team's most popular players before allegations of domestic violence were brought to light. A security camera captured Rice punching his then fiancée, Janay Palmer, in the face in a casino elevator. After the tape was released, the team cut Rice and the NFL suspended him indefinitely.
