After a devastating loss on Sunday to the Jaguars, the Ravens have shaken up their roster a little, removing three players from the 53-man squad and bringing in three new additions. Here are today’s roster moves out of Baltimore, according to the team (all Twitter links):
Signed:
- WR Kaelin Clay (off Lions’ practice squad)
- TE Chase Ford (off Vikings’ practice squad)
- CB Cassius Vaughn
Placed on injured reserve:
- WR Breshad Perriman (knee)
Waived:
- WR/KR Jeremy Ross
Waived/injured:
- CB Asa Jackson (ankle) — will revert to IR if unclaimed (Twitter link)
The most notable move of the Ravens’ six transactions today is the decision to put Perriman on IR, officially ending his rookie season. Baltimore’s first-round pick never saw the field during the 2015 regular season, and after being selected 26th overall in the draft back in April, he won’t get an opportunity to make his NFL debut until 2016.
The Ravens will also be turning to a new return man for their next game, with Ross no longer in the mix, and the newly-signed Clay may get a shot at the job. Ross had fumbled twice in Baltimore’s last three games, leading to his release.
