Reports: Ravens Reach Agreement With Experienced Starting Right Tackle Austin Howard

The Ravens have made their move on the offensive line, reportedly signing veteran offensive right tackle Austin Howard Friday morning.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that it's a done deal.

Howard will likely step in as the team’s first-team right tackle, a position James Hurst has manned throughout the offseason.

Howard, 30, was released by the Oakland Raiders a week ago. He was entering his fourth season with the team after signing a five-year, $30 million deal in 2014.

The Houston Texans also reportedly brought Howard in for a visit Thursday, but he came to the Under Armour Performance Center Friday morning and inked a deal before leaving.
