Ravens Work Out Le’Veon Bell, Devonta Freeman

September 6th, 2021 at 7:36pm CST by Zachary Links

The Ravens’ running back search is underway. After losing Justice Hill to a torn Achilles, the Ravens auditioned running backs Le’Veon Bell, Devonta Freeman, and Elijah Holyfield, per the league’s official list.

Bell is undoubtedly eager to prove that he still has upper-echelon ability. He did not record a 20-yard run as a Jet or as a Chief. Bell’s most recent 100-yard rushing game came in 2017, during his Steelers heyday. In Pittsburgh, Bell posted 1,800-plus scrimmage yards three times en route to the 2014 and ’17 All-Pro teams. He added three 75-catch seasons in that span, so he could provide Lamar Jackson with an intriguing short-range option.

Freeman is also out to prove that he’s more than just a name at this stage of his career. The former Pro Bowler ended up with the Giants last year and averaged just 3.2 yards per carry on 54 totes. The Saints picked him up towards the end of July, but his New Orleans run ended after just one month.

Defensive tackle Reginald McKenzie and quarterback Kenji Bahar also worked out for the Ravens on Monday. And, in other Ravens news, they’ve locked up standout tight end Mark Andrews on a four-year, $56MM deal.

Ravens Sign 9 UDFAs

May 13th, 2021 at 10:28am CST by Zachary Links

The Ravens have added nine undrafted free agents to their offseason roster. Here’s the full rundown:

S Ar’Darius Washington, TCU
OT Adrian Ealy, Oklahoma
TE Tony Poljan, Virginia
QB Kenji Bahar, Monmouth
DT Xavier Kelly, Arkansas
RB Nate McCrary, Saginaw Valley State
OT Foster Sarell, Stanford
WR Donte Sylencieux, Graceland
LB Barrington Wade, Iowa

Bahar earned his spot on the expanded roster after impressing in a tryout earlier this week.

Washington, an undersized safety who played opposite of Raiders second-round pick Trevon Moehrig, may be the most notable player of the bunch. Moehrig graded out Pro Football Focus’ No. 1 graded safety in the country — Washington was No. 2. The Ravens signed at least one UDFA for 16 straight years, up until last year. The Ravens didn’t draft a safety, so Washington could be the player to start the next streak.
