The Baltimore Ravens have had an undrafted rookie free agent make their initial 53-man roster in 18 of the last 19 years. Their league-leading streak of 16 straight years was snapped in 2020 which wasn’t surprising given that the COVID-19 pandemic caused the preseason to be cancelled that year.
Even though the large 18-man crop this year will have the benefit of live exhibition contests outside of a practice setting, they still face an uphill battle to make the 2023 roster. The Ravens are deep at several positions on both sides of the ball and ones where they aren’t will most likely be addressed by the onset of training camp with an experienced veteran free agent signing.
