Ravens Poised to Make Moves in Free Agency, Eyes on Cornerback


“As we’ve said, the roster is never set,” DeCosta said. “I think what you’ll see is in the coming weeks, there are a lot of potential moves for us to make: free agents, guys that we’ve had, guys that we like who are available.”

DeCosta pointed out that two corners the Ravens drafted in the fourth round last year, Jalyn Armour-Davis and Pepe Williams, are “good, young players” who they probably would have drafted in the same spot in this year’s draft.

Other top cornerbacks available on the free agent market include:

  • Shaquill Griffin – A 2019 Pro Bowler who was limited to five games with the Jaguars last season due to a back injury.
  • Bryce Callahan – Played 15 games with the Chargers last season as their primary slot corner and revived his career with 47 tackles and three interceptions.
  • Troy Hill – Started 12 games with the Rams last season with 67 tackles and one interception.
  • Eli Apple – A starter with the Bengals last season with 49 tackles, eight passed defended and no interceptions in 15 games.
  • Tre Flowers – A veteran in the Bengals rotation last season with 27 tackles and one interception in 15 games.
