The Ravens are set to make another veteran addition at the receiver spot. Baltimore is expected to sign Anthony Miller, veteran insider Jordan Schultz reports.

Miller’s last regular season action came in 2021. He split his time between the Texans and Steelers that year, making just six receptions. That production fell well short of that from his tenure with the Bears, which lasted from 2018-20. That spell included a seven-touchdown rookie campaign and a career-high 656 yards and 52 receptions the following season.
The former second-rounder caught on with the 49ers late in the 2023 offseason, but he did not survive the team’s roster cutdown. That led Miller to a brief tenure on the Colts’ practice squad and, later in the campaign, a futures deal with the Chiefs. Kansas City prioritized additions via free agency and the draft at the receiver position, though, and in May Miller was let go.
The 29-year-old had not been connected to any visits or interest from teams until today. Baltimore’s offseason did not consist of much in the way of roster moves amongst receivers, but the team will once again add depth presuming this Miller deal goes through. He will compete for a spot in a WR room consisting of Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman, Nelson Agholor, fourth-round rookie Devontez Walker and returner Deonte Harty in addition to recent signing Russell Gage.
The Ravens have not had a pass-happy offense during the Lamar Jackson era, and the addition of Derrick Henry in the backfield has led to the expectation of a ground-based attack continuing in 2024. Miller’s sparse production will no doubt limit his value to the league minimum on a Baltimore pact, and he will have work to do to carve out a roster spot. The team’s remaining training camp practices and preseason schedule will provide him with the opportunity to do just that, though.

Fun fact: That Anthony Miller retired in 1998 and still has more NFL receptions in the younger Anthony Miller’s lifetime than the latter does.
I’ll admit Bears fans were pretty amped to see this guy averaging a TD every 5 catches as a rookie but the cosmic order of the universe dictates that nothing that good shall last in Chicago for long.
He became known as Anthony “off the hands of” Miller. At least once or twice a game he’d fumble fck a pass. That’s what the announcers would say. Baltimore is really digging deep for WRs.
