One of the biggest questions for the Baltimore Ravens entering NFL roster cutdown day was the pending status of undrafted rookie linebacker Jay Higgins. Higgins undoubtedly played like a defender worthy of one of the 53-man roster spots, but no one knew if there would be enough space for him. On Tuesday, fans got their answer, and they can now breathe a sigh of relief.

Higgins will remain in Baltimore as they head into the 2025 regular season. He sneaks onto the roster, as the team will roster five inside linebackers. It seems like they have overloaded at the position, but given Higgins’ elite play through preseason, he was a must-have on the active roster.
