The Baltimore Ravens have begun to make roster moves ahead of Tuesday’s deadline to get to 75 players. So far, there are no surprises.
It is a miserable day for some members of the Baltimore Ravens. They can no longer say they are a part of the team.
There are still decisions to be made as the Ravens have slashed their roster to 79 players. They have until 4 p.m. Tuesday to get down to 75.
Tight endBen Watsonhas been officially placed on injured reserveafter tearing his Achilles’ tendon on the first offensive play of the gameon Saturday. Joining him on IR will be cornerbackKyle Arrington, who was a long shot to make the roster.
Here is the group that have already turned in their playbook:
OL Jarrell Broxton
DL Trevon Coley
WR Dobson Collins
LB Kavell Conner
C Anthony Fabiano
WR Chuck Jacobs
QB Jerrod Johnson
LB Mario Ojemudia
WR Darius White
No shocking names, but those are sure to come in the next week. Broxton was the one player I thought could sneak on the roster as the final offensive lineman, but he joins three other undrafted rookie free agents to be cut.
There was areport that 2013 first-round pick Matt Elam could be waivedin the upcoming days. Elam suffered a knee injury earlier in the preseason after battling injuries last year as well.Terrence BrooksandAnthony Levinehave played very well during the preseason and have earned a spot on the team.
One would think another upcoming move is defensive end Bronson Kaufusi’s move to IR as well. That would leave John Harbaugh andOzzie Newsomewith two more moves to make before the deadline.
