The only kicker the Ravens have on the roster is Tyler Loop. He found out he won the job during Saturday night’s post-game press conference. Baltimore did have two kickers earlier in camp, however, and HC John Harbaugh said they could bring him back when injuries allowed them to most some roster moves.
Following a poor season, former Ravens K Justin Tucker also faced sexual assault allegations. The factors combined compelled the Ravens to draft a kicker, taking Tyler Loop in the sixth round. They also added John Hoyland as a rookie free agent, and for much of the offseason, he remained competitive with the draft pick.
