OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- A week after releasing seven-time Pro Bowl kicker Justin Tucker, the Baltimore Ravens added competition for his replacement.

On Monday, the Ravens signed undrafted Wyoming rookie John Hoyland after last week's tryout. He will battle sixth-round pick Tyler Loop to be Baltimore's kicker this season.

The Ravens released Tucker on May 5, saying it was a football decision. Tucker is currently being investigated by the NFL after 16 massage therapists from high-end spas and wellness centers accused him of inappropriate behavior, according to the Baltimore Banner.
