Ravens Cut Roster To 53
The Ravens became the latest team to get down to 53, cutting a slew of players on Saturday via a team announcement. With the moves, Baltimore ended a 16-year streak of keeping at least one undrafted rookie on the roster, another sign of the impact COVID-19 and the reduced offseason had on roster decisions.
Here are the 23 guys who were let go:
- TE Jerell Adams
- LB Aaron Adeoye
- RB Kenjon Barner
- DB Terrell Bonds
- C Trystan Colon-Castillo
- DT Aaron Crawford
- DB Khalil Dorsey
- G Parker Ehinger
- G Will Holden
- QB Tyler Huntley
- WR Jaylon Moore
- LS Nick Moore
- DB Josh Nurse
- DB Jordan Richards
- DE Chauncey Rivers
- TE Charles Scarff
- WR Jaleel Scott
- P Johnny Townsend
- DB Nigel Warrior
- LB Kristian Welch
- RB Ty’Son Williams
- DE Marcus Willoughby
- TE Eli Wolf
Barner played a somewhat prominent role on a couple of Eagles teams and won Super Bowl LII with the team. Since leaving Philly he’s bounced between New England, Carolina, and Atlanta. Ehinger started a game at guard for Baltimore last year, but couldn’t crack the roster this time around.
Richards was a full-time starter with the Falcons in 2018, and appeared in nine games with Baltimore last year, scoring a touchdown on a fumble recovery. Townsend was the Raiders’ punter in 2018, and just signed with the Ravens a couple of weeks ago. He probably never had too good a chance of beating out Sam Koch, who has been with the Ravens since 2006. Huntley had a very solid college career at Utah, but wasn’t viewed by too many as a legitimate pro passer.

Ravens Move Down To 53
The Ravens minced their roster to 53 players, parting ways with UDFA Gerald Willis to get there. Baltimore also placed Tavon Young and Kenneth Dixon on IR.
Young suffered a neck injury recently and will miss a full season for the second time in three years. While Baltimore boasts a deep cornerback corps, losing its slot man again will not help the high-end defense’s cause. Dixon will head back to IR. The Ravens placed him on IR in September 2018 but used an IR-return slot on him. That will not be an option this year, which doubles as the running back’s contract slate.
Character concerns caused Willis, viewed as a high-Day 3-type prospect out of Miami, to go undrafted. He is now on the waiver wire.
Here are Baltimore’s cuts:
- Aaron Adeoye, DE
- Marcus Applefield, T
- Terrell Bonds, DB
- Maurice Canady, DB
- E.J. Ejiya, LB
- Tyler Ervin, RB
- Christopher Ezeala, RB
- Willie Henry, DT
- Cole Herdman, TE
- Bennett Jackson, DB
- Stanley Jean-Baptiste, DB
- Sean Modster, WR
- Cameron Nizialek, P
- Donald Payne, LB
- R.J. Prince, G
- Charles Scarff, TE
- Zach Sieler, DE
- Brynden Trawick, DB
- Antoine Wesley, WR
- Gerald Willis, DT
Placed on IR:
- Randin Crecelius, T
- Kenneth Dixon, RB
- Alvin Jones, LB
- Fish Smithson, DB
- Tavon Young, DB
