Ravens sign Jaire Alexander following the cornerback's release by the Packers

OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) — Jaire Alexander has signed with the Baltimore Ravens less than two weeks after the two-time Pro Bowl cornerback was released by the Green Bay Packers.

The Ravens posted video Wednesday of star quarterback Lamar Jackson enthusiastically greeting Alexander after he signed with the two-time defending AFC North champions.

The Packers released Alexander on June 9, ending a seven-year run in which he emerged as one of the NFL’s top cornerbacks before injuries limited his availability.

ESPN reported that the 28-year-old Alexander was getting a one-year deal with a base value of $4 million and another $2 million in incentives.
