So, as you no doubt have read by now, the Baltimore Ravens were indeed able to land free agent wide receiver Jeremy Maclin, who was a surprise late roster cut early in June by the Chiefs. The former Kansas City and Philadelphia wideout will provide an immediate and much-needed contributor to a pass-catcher-starved Ravens offense in the wake of Steve Smith’s retirement.
Maclin figures to slide into the slot, a position in which he has seen significant time over the course of his career, with Mike Wallace and Breshad Perriman as the primary outside wide receivers, but it is certainly possible that Maclin starts and plays outside when they operate in two-receiver sets.
